Day 1 - Traveling.. OH SO EARLY

Date: June 9, 2010 (Wednesday)
Time: 7-something am
Destination: Seattle, WA


So, here I am, off on another trip.  Rocky morning that's for sure.  
Woke up at 3:30am, about 3 hours of sleep I'm running on.  Flight at 7 and here I am on the plane.  But let's back track a bit.


We thought our flight was with American Airlines, so we headed to terminal 3.  Turns out our flight was with Alaska Air in terminal 2, so we had to walk outside all the way to the next terminal.


Checked in my bag and off we headed to the security check.
Boarded at 6:30 and here we are on the plane.  I want to sleep, but that seems unlikely right now.  I'm already annoyed by the people around me.  Quit moving around damnit!
Maybe I'm irritated because lack of sleep.  I'll go and try. haha.


Time: 7:42pm


Just took a shower and ate dinner.  So let's recap what happened after the last entry.


I think I only got about 15-20 minutes of sleep on the plane.  I was completely sandwiched between Deanna and the Lolo on the other side of me.  So sleeping was a bit difficult.


Picked up the car and upgraded our economy to a Prius, which I think sucks.  We'll see what happens after I drive it tomorrow.


Went to get food immediately after. Headed to Kent and tried to go to "Kent Station."  Ended up at Kent Commons and ate there instead.  Panera haha.


Drove around a bit to get used to the car and headed back towards the airport toward Tukwila for the Westfiled mall.  It was HUGE!  And twice as nicer as Valleyfair.  Walked around a bit to kill time.  We also got Starbucks because we started acting loopy from sleep deprivation.  
Had my first coffee since before lent and I must say, worth the wait for a fresh Seattle taste. 

Trying to kill time, finally it hit 3pm so we headed back to Kent.
Stopped at Safeway to buy some tea and microwave food for dinner, then off to check in at the hotel.


Our hotel room, or should I say SUITE is completely outrageous!  Amazing outrageous!  It's a 2 bedroom condo with a full kitchen (thank you priceline!).  It's 2 stories, my room's upstairs and we both have our own bathrooms as well.


Took a shower, yet i'm still sleepy.  Can't help the deprivation.  Even coffee didn't help.  It's only 8, but I'm sleepy.  Maybe I'll hit the sack early since I did wake up super early.
It's going to rain tomorrow (btw, it's raining..or was..here -_-;)


So decided to save Seattle for Friday since we're mainly walking.  Tomorrow we're hitting up Federal Way.  Hopefully the rain won't be too bad.  Federal Way is supposed to be super pretty with all the gardens, parks and beaches.


Anyways.. till later (or tomorrow)...
