Bored in Boston

Landed at Logan International airport at 1:00pm with seven and a half hours to kill before our flight to Reykjavik. Thankfully we had it all planned out. Rush to the Iceland air counter, check-in grab the #33 bus to the subway, hop off at State street and enjoy the sights, sounds and most of all the flavors (USA spelling) of Beantown.


Unfortunately, the Iceland Air check-in counter only opened at 5pm, not leaving us enough time to make our escape. Still we did manage to sit outside on a bench and enjoy a record breaking day 21C on December 3. Wow.


So what do I do to kill time - http:///www.hulu.com where you can watch tv shows for FREE. Read Downtown Owl on my Sony Reader...eat...drink coffee and enjoy free internet, a Christmas gift from Google.


We played spot the FCC employee / celebrity  look-a-like. This guy looks like a grown up version of Billy from King of the Hill.



Once I got bored of people watching...I felt the need to learn a new language maybe Icelandic would come in handy...but how does one go about learning Japanese, Korean or even English whilst killing time at an airport? Phiew, they have a RosettaStone vending machine. 


So one more hour to go and eg ønsker deg en god reise hjem to you.
