What better way to start a trip than a
trip to the Airport Bar. Shane hasn't been this happy since he had
to fill one of those glasses up for his doctor.
|
The great thing about the airport bar
is you can spy on the terminal where your plane is expected to show
up... allowing you maximum drinking time before boarding your
flight.
|
mmm, mmm, good
|
The airbus finally arrives.
|
Not sure if you can see it, but one of
the airport slackers is actually sleeping inside the cargo bay of
the airbus.
|
Shane isn't book-smart. He's
magazine-smart.
|
Just in case you haven't been in an
airplane before... this is the crapper. Please note the SMALL size
of the bathroom... if you're a fattie you better plan on holding
it, or get yourself some Depends™.
|
Well... looks like I'm going to have
to hold it... or test to see if those Depends™ drip-proof
elasti-guards are all they're cracked up to be.
|
Shane doesn't drink to look cool
(please note his non-coolness regardless of holding a very adult
beverage). Rather, Shane drinks so people like him more. And it
works... 'cause after a few of those, when he falls asleep everyone
will like him a LOT more.
|
Jumbotron screens they are not. I
think the in-seat phone screen is bigger than those overhead TVs.
Oh well... just like with regular TV there's nothing good on
anyway.
|
Once we land in Denver we (and when I
say "we" I mean "SHANE") discovers that "we've" lost "our" boarding
pass for our connecting flight. How in the world do you lose your
boarding pass on a plane? You're 35,000 ft. in the air... where is
it going to go? Well, I guess if we solve that one we'll understand
how hijackers get guns onto planes.
|
Fine dining in Denver's airport. I got
the fries and the buger... Shane got the toy.
|
Another location... another drink.
Here we see a photo of Mr. Clean's evil twin, Mr. Slacker.
|
Just in case we weren't feeling
comfortable enough with airplane safety, they wisk us off to a
small prop-jet for our trip from Denver to Steamboat Springs.
|
Here you see a view from the back row
of the plane. Please note: they don't serve drinks on these little
"hopper" planes... so pack a flask!
