Part 2

Alright, so the next morning Lauri and I wake up at 430 in the morning. Luckily, Chris's place was about 10 minutes or so from DFW. My plane leaves at 6. We get there at 445. No problems, right? WRONG! Apparently, my driver's license had expired. Didn't the state used to send letters saying it was about to expire? I NEVER GOT MINE! Anyways, I'm like, "CRAP!!!" The TSA guy was like, "It's not a big deal. I just have to put no id on your ticket." So I go on through. Well, I read the FAA guidelines on liquids wrong and had to throw some stuff away. People were giving me dirty looks. I don't care. They were pretty ugly anyways.

That was basically it for Grapevine/DFW.

I had a flight change/layover in Philly. Got there with no problems and was supposed to have about 2 hours there. So I start walking through the airport. At first I thought it was somewhat nice. Once again I was wrong! It looked nice, but the terminals were DIRTY and crowded and smelled! I at lunch at a TGI Fridays. It was ok. So I get done eating and I walk to my terminal. My second flight left a little after noon and I was at the terminal at 1115. When I walked up there was NO ONE in the terminal except the lady that was checking tickets. I notice that they were already boarding and since I had a few minutes at sit down. I'm not kidding when I say I sat down for only 5 minutes when the lady got on the mic and said, "Last call for boarding from Philly to Hartford/Windsor Locks!" I was like, "CRAP AGAIN!!" So I get on this little commuter jet that was already filled to capacity. I didn't trust US Airways with my crap so I kept it all. However, being that I was late getting on the flight there weren't hardly any storage bins left open. I had to put my carry on in the back third of the plane whereas I was sitting in the front third. Needless to say it was very enjoyable getting my junk off of the plane. I was last getting off!

Anyways, will post more about actually being in Connecticut later.
