[Insert Witty Title Here]

Well that flight was three times as long and at least that much more interesting. It was the biggest plane I've been on in a while. Two seats, an aisle, three seats, another aisle, and another two seats. They also had the cool little touch-screen TV thingies in the back of every seat. I watched Loony Toons at 30,000 feet *giggle* I also got real food! I had a yummy yogurt granola cup and a turkey croisant sammich. Apparently a three hour flight is normally long enough for the attendants to provide two rounds of service, but about that time we hit some "moderate" turbulence. I'm not sure moderate is the word I would use! And of course I was asleep when it started! That was definitely a... startling way to wake up, with the sensation of free-fall. I just snuggled my plushies and rode through it. It was rough, but short lived. The landing was a little rough, but not bad. Once in Atlanta it took me a while to find a monitor with my flight listed. Of course it was in the terminal the farthest from where I got in. At least they have a "Plane Train" here. I found my gate, which happened to have a Starbucks near it. So here I am, waiting again, but at least I have a yummy Pumpkin Spice Latte (I love fall!). Too bad the internet isn't free here (I'm writing in notepad to post later). Just a minute ago it was raining pretty hard, a downpour even. The sun is poking through now, although it's still sprinkling. I think this is the first rain I've seen in over a month! I wish I could go frolic in it. Oh well. My third and final flight starts boarding in about 45 minutes. I will get to Huntsville one minute before I leave here. *giggle* Wow, I just realized I'm hitting every time zone in the (continental) country today! I don't think I've ever done that before. As long as I focus on the adventure of it all I'm not getting too upset...
