We book a stay park and fly deal thru value fly...figured to be the best deal since our flight was early sunday morning. We arrive at the hotel in atlanta and guess what? No reservations. And she said they had no rooms. We call value fly and of course no answer...We are frustrated. I had a couple of hotel numbers in my travel book, so I call the two close to us, no vacancy...Janet is on the phone with the owner...Finally found us a room, 20.00 more than we had thru value fly, but we'll take it...since they had to dig us up a room, I expected the worse. well, pleasnatly surprised, room was nice, a/c worked great nice king bed, and the room number was......420. this is a sign of the great weeks ahead. Janet just says I am silly. What?
Not many choices in the area, settle on Mexican resturant across the street, not very good for either of us. go back to room, watch opening day of college football, drink beer, subs and early sleep.
wake sunday morning 5am, not feeling well, load the shuttle, wait, I need a minute...step outside and for second time that morning, had to do what I call puke and rally...supper didnt sit right, only 2 beers, just get it out and I'll feel better...one last sub to relive the nausua... and it worked...ok lets go..our driver spoke a little fast and didn't quite understand everything he said...on the way, he's complaining about the new international terminal the atl airport has, and how far it is and blah, blah, blah...well it is a long way from the old one...he told us to blah blah, and he would meet us there in zone 3...ok, zone 3, I got it....should have listened better... arriving back to atl from international is a vary long walk and another very long shuttle to where he met us.....not better or easier at all...
anyways, check in is easy, board w/o problems, plane is full, aactually land about 15 mins ahead of schedule....
arrive at sangster, gather our checked luggage, and we are looking a mess, 2 big checked bags, 2 carry on bags, laptop bag stuffed,and a huge purse...practice my system at home, worked great, just not as easy here in public, at the airport, trying to get out to our ride....ok all done, lets get outside
