A woman was flying from Melbourne to Brisbane when, unexpectedly, the plane was diverted to Sydney. The flight attendant announced there would be a delay and gave passengers the option to get off the plane, which would re-board in 50 minutes. Everyone got off, except for one lady who was blind.

A man noticed her as he walked by and realized she was blind because her Seeing Eye Dog lay quietly under the seats throughout the flight. He also noticed the pilot, who approached her and greeted her by name, asking if she would like to get off and stretch her legs while the plane was on the ground for an hour.

The blind lady replied, “No thanks, but maybe Max would like to stretch his legs.”

At that moment, all the people in the gate area froze when they saw the pilot walk off the plane with the Seeing Eye Dog, wearing sunglasses.

Panic ensued. People rushed to change planes and even airlines!

The moral of the story: Things aren’t always as they appear, and a day without laughter is a day wasted!
