Lesson Learned: Bring extra clothes in carry-on luggage<\/span><\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

We scheduled a long layover in Atlanta when we returned from Europe (thought we needed extra time with COVID and customs).  Of course, our plane was one hour early so our long layover was now forever.  My daughter started feeling sick when we landed.  I thought maybe she was hungry, so we found a restaurant for a \u201creal\u201d meal.  She didn\u2019t feel like eating and said she needed to use the restroom.  Literally 10 steps away from the restroom, she vomits.  Since she had her mask on, instead of spewing all over the floor, it went down her jumper.  Quickly she ran into the bathroom while I guarded the vomit so no one would slip on it.  <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

People were upset I was blocking the middle of the walkway until they realized I was preventing them from stepping in nasty vomitus!  A transporter was pushing an old lady in a wheelchair and stopped to help.  The old woman screamed \u201cWhat are you doing?  Can\u2019t you see she\u2019s sick?!?  Go! Go! Go!\u201d  Finally, my husband found a wet floor sign and I went to find my daughter.  I found her butt naked in the handicap stall.  Yep, she had stripped and cleaned herself with loads of toilet paper.  \u201cI\u2019m not wearing that jumper,\u201d she said.  Shit!!  <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

I gave her my sweater, left her naked in the bathroom with my phone if she needed anything and set out to buy her new clothes.  Except\u2026there are NO clothing stores anywhere!  It took me over an hour riding trams to different terminals to find all the stores closed (and I didn\u2019t have a phone to tell them).  Even my husband ventured out to try and find something as I hadn\u2019t returned.  None of the souvenir shops had any shorts or bottoms.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

She ended up wearing a 2XL Atlanta Hawks souvenir t-shirt home.  Lesson learned \u2013 bring an extra set of clothes in carry-on luggage.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
