My Fascination with Airports


Airports are the best place to people watch! (Also one of my favorite past times).

Waiting to board my flight on Lot (best airline ever!
They have the most gorgeous flight attendants.)
I've been flying since I was 5 years old. Having to wait for flights gives you ample opportunity to (subtly) creep on other people. I watched a million different people walk by, of all different shapes, colors and sizes. As I watch, I like to guess where they're from and where they're headed (and sometimes I eavesdrop to try to figure out what language they are speaking and what they are saying). And where there is a lack of information, I just use my imagination to fill in the gaps. 

The best part of airports is that they are so full of raw emotion. You can see joy and excitement as old friends reunite with one another, couples filled with sadness as they depart ways, travelers cursing under thier breath for missing a flight, consultants furiously typing away on their laptops, emo teenagers listening to thier ipods, siblings fighting, moms yelling, babies crying, grandpas sleeping, ... and me, always people watching.
