Tampa International Airport
From La Antigua, Guatemala - Christian Spanish Academy in Tampa, United States on Sep 17 '08
So I took a 7:35 PM flight out of CVG and arrived here in Tampa at 10:15PM. Went directly to Continental Kiosk only to find I cannot check my luggage in until 4:30 AM, sweet.... So I carted my two large checked bags and pack all over to find any place open and to my suprise there was nothing except a 24 hour Starbucks, outside of which I currently sit for its convenient chair/power outlet ammenities. I juggled the idea of a hotel however after an hour of calling and not recieving any straight answers on airport shuttle services at 5AM I decided it was not worth the $100+ it would cost, so here I am. Hopefully some of the starbucks fumes will keep me awake, if not I have a bottle of 5hr energy that I have never had before, results of which are to come... Other than that all is well. Greatly looking forward to Guatemala. I was glad to hear my living arrangements were properly settled at 8AM yesturday morning so I am all good there. I just took my first airport bird bath, now time to hang out until check in.
nothing is open!
