Local Transportation Take Me Where I Want to Go
The flight from Denver to San Francisco is more bumpy than usual. Flight attendant’s have indicated there is a cold front moving towards Colorado and the lower temperatures are causing big blasts of turbulence. Their explanations seem plausible. I wonder, though if they just think of things to tell us so we won’t whine and upset fellow passengers!
Fortunately, I’m able to get some emails caught up. This is one of those times when I wish all of the airlines had WiFi built into the flight (and for something closer to FREE than $12.95 per flight!) But I know that when we do touch down and I’m in range all the work I’m doing will get sent off without a hitch.
I wish I could do the same with these blog posts. I’d read somewhere that you can post to a blog site using an email, but I’m definitely not far enough along with my blogucation to perform that sort of magic. If you know how to make that happen, maybe you could point me in the right direction? It would be kind of cool to touch it once and then forget it.
About halfway now, I’m thinking about the location of the SFO Airport hotel. While it’s very convenient for staying close to the actual terminal and for meetings on this side of SF, it makes it harder to get to enjoy all the great things in the City itself.
Not to complain, however. Transportation exists for getting from the hotel to all my favorite hotspots downtown. But I tend to prefer to walk a lot when in a different city. Being in Arizona doesn’t really lend itself to doing that too much. You can walk in small neighborhood spaces, but nothing like when you’re in NYC or SF.
So, I tend to take a cab, or if there’s a shuttle, I’ll opt for using that to get me to the general area I hope to spend time in. From there, however, I’ll hoof it around taking in the sights, sounds, smells of the place. It’s easier to smile and say hello to passersby. Plus the big dividend is when you stumble upon the elusive hole-in-the-wall place that screams for your attention. Just a quick duck inside and a whole new adventure begins!
