So our adventure started out not so well. Having arrived only an hour before our first flight, we barely made the plane... and I thought I lost my driver's license, but totally didn't. The Chicago layover went well, and we enjoyed the time in Brookstone. They offered two compelling items: the iSqueeze (a leg massager) and the iGallop, this fucking ridiculous thing I'm riding that they tried to pass off as an ab exerciser, but was clearly a sex toy. This is the kind of shit that you'd see on a bad episode of Mad TV.
Anyway, the Chicago layover went well, but after our 2 hour flight to Philadelphia, we couldn't land because of the weather, and instead had to land in Baltimore to refuel. By the time we got to Philly, it was 3 hours past our flight to Madrid, and consequently, we missed our flight. Now we're in the airport for the next 24 hours, trying to entertain ourselves, "Terminal" style. Here are a few things that have passed the time: We walked around and I saw a plate out with a bunch of muffins. I walk up to the people working there and ask them if they're trying to get rid of the muffins, we gained 5 muffins. Then as we walk around I walk up to a guy and ask him if he'd like to give us anything, so he hands us a couple bottles of water. As we continue to walk around, we are slowly acquiring more and more food and supplies.
19 hours. found some massage chairs to take a break in.
I walked up to one of the airport check out desks, and behind the desk where just a bunch of bins. In one of them, there was the McDonalds spinner toy. After I pulled this stupid toy so hard that the little plastic teeth were stripped, this security guard came up to us, asking if he could try it. I warned him that the teeth were stripped, but still he gave it a go. He pulled it and it didn't go too high, so he declared "This is bullshit!" and handed the toy back to us.
This needs no explanation.
18 hours. displaying all of our bounty.

17 hours. decided to spring $8 for 24 hours of wi-fi for today and tomorrow.
Otherwise, just chilling out, trying to pass time until the plane flight.

Nice. I like on the second video when the couple drift by and just kind of stare at you in awe. I remember when I was in Houston for 3 hours, I found a bunch of toy dinasours. Like at least 100 of them. So when people weren't looking, I'd put one on their arm rest, or on their laptop, or on their bag, or on their paper plate. Their reactions were the best. It usually consisted of "what the....where'd this dinasour come from?"
nice haircut, schmatty

He would say it's bullshit. Did he happen to mention his name was KYLE HOLCOMB?
Airport shenanigans are the best.
Glad to see you were safe and "entertained" at the airport. Looks like fun times in Madrid. We want more blogging. We love it. Stay safe. Love
