In That Number

Today's a big day for anyone from the Gulf Coast. As much as we try to forget what happened 5 years ago today and as much as we may want to forget, Katrina's legacy remains for everyone. So in honor of the culture of New Orleans which isn't recovering but has survived (get it right newspapers!), I'm sharing this mix I've put together from various benefit albums and compilations. I like it, and I hope you do too.

Airports

In honor of the fact that I will be leaving to head back to DC in exactly one week I'm doing a little experiment for myself as to the airports I've been in in the past 365 days. Or rather, the past 358 days as I will be going up to next Wednesday. So without further ado I present to you a list that tells you just how much of my life I've wasted in these things lately (in no particular order, with official names if I know them off the top of my head):

New Orleans (Louis Armstrong International Airport)
Atlanta (Hartsfield-Jackson International Airport)
Washington, DC (Reagan International Airport)
Washington, DC (Dulles International Airport)
Boston (Logan International Airport)
Memphis (the Tennessee one, not the one in Egypt)
Detroit
Sarasota-Bradenton International Airport
Tampa
Chicago (Midway International Airport)
Paris (Orly)
Paris (Charles DeGaulle)
Florence-Peretola
Pisa (Galileo Galilei)
Frankfurt (am Main)
Berlin-Schönefeld
London (Gatwick)
London (Heathrow)
London (Stansted)
Glasgow 
Glasgow (Prestwick)
Dublin
Edinburgh
Venice (Marco Polo)
Verona-Villafranca
Milan-Malpensa
Tokyo-Narita
Osaka
Taiwan Taoyuan




Next up - train stations! Ha, just kidding, that would be horribly difficult and at least 5 times as long (hooray for European and Asian train systems right?!)


Now this is just making me sad because this year this list will be much much shorter. As much as I dislike airports I do love traveling. Shame. Oh well, I'll just have to fit in some trips somewhere! Suggestions?
