Well, today is certainly not... easy. Waking up at 4 am is nobody's cup of tea (except my grandma). Finding out that switching airlines requires going through security and extra time and re-checking in isn't either.
I didn't appreciate the heart attack when I got to DC and they told me that Ecuador reserved the right to not give me a tourist visa ( it had never ocurred to me) and the one when I saw that a flight had just departed to Atlanta... I thought I had missed my flight... but then I realized that this was flight that left an hour earlier than mine... so I was safe.
Waiting in Atlanta is torture. Especially when your gate is at the. very.end. of the airport- E36. Then you find out that it has been re-assigned and you have to wait until 3 hours before your flight actually leaves to find out where to go. All the while the bag you bought for your trip (that was actually kinda cute...) rips into shreds every time you pick it up. Sooo now I'm carrying my huge purse like a baby, hanging out at random gates waiting for my flight... cause I refuse to walk to the very end of the whole airport and wait there if I get re-assigned to one on the other side.
Now I understand why that ticket was so cheap.
