Thailand 2008
I didn't sleep much as usual, I was excited to the point of insomnia, but I did get a few anxious hours of rest. I left the house around 4 am arriving in K.C. with lots of time. I hate the feeling of being in a rush so I like being early sometimes very early depending on the importance of the function, and catching a plane for my vacation to Thailand is always very important to me. In all of my past trips I've left on the first flt out of KC to LAX as it is a nonstop flt. This trip I decided to leave a little later so I didn't have to wait so long for my next flt. Well that turned out to be a poor choice, one I will not make in the future.
I flew Southwest as I have for the last 6 trips. Southwest left late and we landed in Albuquerque almost an hour late on top of that one of the flt attendants became ill and we had to wait for her to be helped off the plane before we could leave. I made my way to the connecting flt thinking I was going to be late and my pea brain was worrying that I wouldn't make the LAX flt and that would be the end of my vacation. Ha, I forgot about the time change, I actually had about an hour before the next flt. Silly me. Here's a nice little coffee shop at the departure gate. Great idea, I love my coffee.

I made it to LAX about 3 hours before my departure. In all my flts going into LAX I have always walked from the domestic terminal to the international terminal. This trip I jumped on the blue bus and had a nice ride, why have I not done that in the past, Damn it's a long walk.
I checked in at EVA Airlines, I love EVA. I flew Business this time so after check in I made my way to the lounge. I think I've been spoiled I really like the life style with lounges in it. It is better way to fly, it's quieter and more relaxing being able to use a lounge and not setting around McDonald's eating a quarter ponder with 100 other people.
