Regression to the mean - 3 August 2008

Jen has asked me to plan this portion of the trip, so things are going to be a bit more sedentary from here on out. I used the free internet in the hotel this morning to book us a flight to Cape Town, and we'll be staying in a Holiday Inn Express. Stay tuned to see if we get any smarter.

Two interesting notes from today:

Jen ordered waffles at our hotel this morning. They came with ice cream, which she thought was butter and then spread on her waffles. I don't think it's going to catch on as the preferred way to eat waffles.

It seems that every airline that isn't U.S. based considers it their responsibility to feed you if you set foot on their plane. We took a 2 hour South African Airlines flight (SAA), and they gave us a light meal. I'd bag on American again, but I know for a fact that United isn't any better.

Stay tuned for our scintillating journeys to the laundromat, the shopping mall, and the high-end steakhouse.
