The Airport

I'm at the airport right now doing my favorite pass-time--people watching.  There is a lady on the floor playing with her dog and I swear if I get seated next to her on the airplane I am staying in SLC.  I wish i liked animals more.  No, I actually don't.  It's fine.  PETA stands for people eating tasty animals doesn't it?  So anyway--things I've noticed about  the airport:

  • Lots of access to charging ports, but for some reason the people sitting at the seats that I could charge my phone at are always the old women just reading a book. They probably don't even own a cell phone or any electronic device they're flying with for that matter.
  • Overpriced food.  Seriously I almost just bout an apple for $3 before I remembered who I am and what I stand for.
  • The people who walk around wearing doctor masks.  I know there probably are a lot of germs at the airport, and maybe they really are sick, but if that is just a precaution I'd say that's a bit dramatic.
  • You're told to get to the airport TWO hours in advance to your flight leaving.  I got here at 10:00, and it's now 10:30, I'm sitting in a seat at my terminal waiting for over an hour until I can board.  TSA has really picked up the pace here at SLC INT'L.
  • Why does everyone here look so exhausted?
  • I've been to an airport where there was no free Wi-Fi.  They already made me pay $25 to check a bag and now THIS? I'll probably never go there again.
  • Lastly, the Delta terminal of SLC has Cafe Rio and crushed ice.  Made my day.
See ya.
