Least Efficient Possible Route
So today at about 9 I will be leaving for SeaTac Airport to catch a plane to get *eventually* get to Cape Cod, after car parking and shuttling, baggage check in, a ridiculous security procedure (don't you dare bring on that family sized Carmex, you might not get as dehydrated) we will get on a flight to Atlanta Georgia at about midnight, for those of your keeping track at home, that means we are going from Seattle to Atlanta, which is a diagonal flight which takes more time than just taking a direct flight, so we will arive at about 8 in the morning becuase of timezines. Then we will wait for a bit because our connecting flight isn't for a while, or we will have to rush to our gate, I'm rooting for the former. At this point we will fly straight up the country to get to Logan airport in what is the least efficient possible way of getting from point A to point B. We aren't taking a direct flight to save money, but this doesn't make sense, it seems like it should be cheaper from a fuel and salary perspective to just go the most effiecient way, if this incolves stops, I'm okay with that, but our route is ridiculous. But wait there's more! When we get to Logan airport my family (mom, dad and me) will pray in our special atheist way that our bags have followed the same route as us, while we wait for the baggage claim. We will have arrived at probably 1 in the afternoon, if we are lucky we will get to the shuttle-busstop at 1:30 or 2 wait for a shuttle to the car rental place, then wait around to get a car so we can drive to Provincetown in Cape Cod. It usually takes and hour to get into Boston so that we can take the 3 hour drive to Provincetown. Oh. Joy. This is why I hate travel. I'll have blog about everything probably a week from today.

Timezines? They're like official timezones but created by the community and published through the internet or independent print houses.
