On check-in day I had asked to be placed in one of the rooms in the building with the actual ocean view, but was at that time told they weren’t available. At that time I didn’t double-check b/c I’m used to believing what I’m told. But now I wonder if that was also a lie.

To add more context: This property has three rooms in this category, this one plus two in a different building that actually have clear, unobstructed ocean views. One of those is currently available for booking on the @Hyatt website for the remainder of our stay. We were 🧵…

Something scary happened on my @AlaskaAir flight earlier this week. A 🧵 On Wednesday, our planned flight home from Puerto Vallarta (Alaska # 1365 on Sept 4) experienced a significant engine problem as we were accelerating for takeoff (a loud bang, the whole plane shuddered) 1/

I’m so very grateful to the engineer who grounded our plane. And I’m so very sorry for the 88 people who died to give him the right to do that. Together, they may have saved 184 lives this week. ❤️ 💔 8/
