Airports

So I'm writing this from the Business Class Lounge of the international terminal of the Chicago O'hare Airport.

Things I have learned so far:

1) United Airlines is instrument UNfriendly. 'UN' as in UNited i guess?

2) To save time, don't wear shoes when traveling long distances, as you may have to go through security 3 times in 1 day.

3) Complete strangers with a common predicament bond quickly. That is how I ended up in this classy lounge with free food and drinks.


To sum things up:

Not being able to find the International terminal = good

The Before

At risk of being judged or laughed at...

My current knowledge of Denmark:


Fairy Tales


Vikings


Pastries


Lego

And with that, I leave tomorrow and cannot wait to learn about the real Danish culture and people. Just thought this post would be a good place to start as it is obviously an exaggeration, but probably isn't that far off from most of our knowledge of other countries.
