Flying home twice in the past week or so has taken a lot out of me; I never want to step foot in an airport for a long time. The second time coming home, I took the red eye out of Seattle and had a 3 hour layover in Minneapolis. So, I took advantage of this time to get McDonald's breakfast and to sleep at the terminal. My plane was supposed to fly out at 9:10 and start boarding at 8:40, so I woke up at 8:30 to get all my stuff together and start boarding. But, when I woke up, the screen said the plane was going to some town in Illinois. I ran to the nearest screen and saw that the flight to Fargo had a gate change, to A4 from F2...great, allllll the way across the airport. So, I get on the tram and get to A4 around 8:45 to see that the screen there said the plane was going to Minot, ND. Confused and super frustrated I went up to the counter and threw her my boarding pass and asked where the hell the plane to Fargo was boarding. She pulls it up and said, "Oh, you're at F4 and you're already boarding!" Going through my head was, 'How can they change gates twice in the time I took the tram across the airport?' and 'Are you kidding me?!?! The terminal RIGHT next to the one I was just at?!' But, I ran back to the tram and got to F4 with 15 minutes to spare until the attendant scanned my boarding pass saying I was already on board....good job Delta for double reserving the same seat. Honestly the most frustrating hour of my life. But I'm back in Seattle now without any complications!
Yesterday, Max and I went to the opening home game for the Mariner's! It was part of his birthday present and it was so much fun! However, the Mariner's weren't playing too well at all but it was still really cool to see Safeco and everything around it. Atleast the Twin's can still play baseball and win ;)
