Three hours and twice as many beers later we found out we were on the wrong train. I took this picture right after the bartender in the background told Jack we were hours out of our way. The bartender seemed more amazed than we were.

I love this picture: it's the moment the woman confided that there was a much cheaper alternative to the $60/night hotel she was previously recommending. She lowered her voice and got all conspiratorial when she mentioned it.

Kind of like those "You are Here" maps in malls. I mean, how do they *know*?

fun for the viewer as well. I think I'll just stare at these tickets for hours.

oh yes, this is lovely, don't you think so honey. so glad we threw away the television so we could get a computer and stare at screens filled with much more interesting things. yes, lets keep it on this channel a little longer. only 1 hour has gone by but oh this is nice. dear, can you make me some popcaorn with sauce number 3, or maybe sauce number 4, the kind from Ultraviolet's butt. these tickets just get more and more interesting the more you stare at them.

-------

The way you guys are going better take one of each..

-------

DON'T WORRY, AT THE END OF THIS TRIP YOUR COMPUTER BLOWS UP!
