The Big Apple

Ok so I made it safely to New York. We left SFO about an hour late and arrived here about 40 minutes late. I have a four hour layover so it doesn't really matter. I'm tired and grumpy right now. I don't sleep very well on planes anyways and our ride was a fairly bumpy one so when I did fall asleep I woke up from the shaking. Right now I'm paying 5 bucks for an hour of Internet time. Really all I want to do is lay down and take a nap. This is when traveling with someone is a good thing. They can watch the stuff while you nap. Oh well, it's just me so I'll stay awake. At least this way I should be able to sleep on the next flight.

This next flight is the big, 13 hour one, and guess what? I'm lucky enough to have the center seat. When I win the lottery, I win big. I knew this was a chance when I couldn't check in online yesterday. I'll just have to try and relax and ignore my horrible seat. 13 hours won't feel too much better aisle or not.

I can see the flight attendants getting ready to board my plane. Their uniform is kinda cute. I probably like it because there is a fun hat with a drape that wraps around the neck. Man, I want a hat like theirs.

So other than writing a quick blog entry, I'm charging my ipod for the next leg. There's no way it'll last for the next flight but I want to give it as much juice as I can.

My poor, tired, little brain is out of ideas. Hopefully there will be free wireless in Dubai and I can throw something else on here. If not, then I'll chat next in Nairobi.
