Writing conference travel
Arrived in Jacksonville, FL, and this is the view from my hotel room on the 10th floor of the Hyatt - the St John's river - one of the only rivers in the US that flows south to north.
Posted a funny comment on FB about the Reagan airport: "I always hated Reagan and it turns out that his airport is a clusterfuck." It was really the oddest thing - when I arrived, the departure gate of my connecting flight had changed (from 37 to 23), and to get to the terminal where the new gate is, I had to go through security again. I got to the new gate and I was told, along with several other people, that the board was wrong, and the original gate was correct. Turns out, I didn't have to go through security, because there's a shuttle between terminals. But the shuttle entrance is literally behind one of the departure gates, and almost impossible to see from the hall. I've never seen such a crazy set up.
Another weird side note - someone told me that Reagan National used to be BWI. I said, "I don't think so," but they insisted. Of course it's not (Reagan is in Virgina, BWI is in Maryland); I wonder where they got that idea. BWI is Baltimore-Washington International, which, by the by. is now officially Thurgood Marshall Airport!
