So I'm sitting in my hotel room, chillin' out maxin' relaxin' all cool... I mean, uh... settling in and taking it easy before Traditions training starts tomorrow. I ventured out to get food, and do some exploring only to discover that people give you the weirdest looks when you're alone. It's like they can't handle it. Granted there were a few other people alone, but everyone is still in that state where you're not sure if you're the same kind of alone (i.e. a new Crew Member for DCL versus Captain All-By-Myself-By-Choice). Basically, I'm in limbo until tomorrow morning at 7:00am.
When the hotel receptionist makes a comment about how early you have to start, you know it's VERY early. This means tomorrow morning I need to be in the lobby here at All Star Sports with my contract, sign in papers, passport, and "good walking shoes" ready to Go! Go! Go!
I was a little concerned this morning that I wasn't going to make my connecting flight. Blue Grass Airport is apparently being plagued by a rogue flock of birds. Said flock caused my plane to be delayed not once, but twice. C'mon people, they are birds. This is not a Hitchcock movie... you can shoo them away.
So, I'm just taking it easy and enjoying the downtime since I probably won't be getting any more until March 10.
Let the Magic begin!
Apparently, London's Heathrow airport used to blast Tina Turner music to keep birds off the runway. Fun fact.
