My nest
My nest in the airport in Chicago I Made it!! Apparently. It was a very long long trip. As I am sure some people may know Alaska is quite a ways away from Argentina.
Forseeing that I would probably not get anything to drink on the flight, I made sure and purchased a Root beer soda(since they had no mountain dew). The plane ride to Chicago had me sitting in a window seat. And as such things go there of course was someone in the middle seat that I had to battle with for leg and arm room. After a time everything settled down and I spent my time watching movies on a movieplayer I rented. This was of course until I decided to open my soda. Did I mention I was wearing Khaki colored pants? Anyways it is 3 am and I opened my soda. Harmless you might think, until of course it exploded. I had dark soda fall all over my pants, particularly my lap. I think you can imagine what sort of stain this left, and I had to sit through the flight with wet pants.
I luckily had brought another pair of pants so I was able to change in Chicago. I
Flight into Buenos Aires
Here is my flight into argentine spent my time hanging out and watching movies. I would have gotten on the net but as was mentioned to me once, Alaska is really the only place with free wifi in the airport(or at least the only place I have seen). After leaving Chicago I had a 3 hour flight to Miami that had me come in at 10:30 with my next flight departing at 11:20. You might understand why at that time I was in a hurry when we landed. Of course since I was in a hurry this was the slowest disembark from a plan I have ever seen. It took forever for people to get their luggage and move.
After the run to the other terminal(even had to take a train…) I made it just in time to board for the flight to Buenos Aires. This flight took 10 long long hours. After passing all of the really nice first and business class seats on the slow move to my cramped area I realized that in the future I will really need to upgrade.
I arrived in Buenos Aires and spent 2 hours going through immigration. I was picked up and made it to
