Vegas Trip July STARTS HERE

Left London, ON, Canada about 2:30am,
bright and early Wednesday. Headed out of
Detroit again this trip, just so much cheaper
to fly from the D than out of Toronto.
Flew Spirit Airlines. Cheap, and for good reason.
Planes were very unclean, and leg space
was non-existant. If you're taller than about 5'9",
you'll be cramped. Over 6' tall, forgetaboutit !

Thinking maybe they bought these dirty
worn out
planes from a bankrupt russian airline
because the toilet paper looks likes something
out of the former soviet union, thin enough
to almost call it transparent.

Interesting situation, first 10 minutes of the flight,
there was an Islamic guy praying at the back
of the plane, right in front of the bathroom
(for unknown reasons, the flight attendant
sent him there instead of an empty seat row).
Most people were trying to be respectful,
but if you gotta go pee, you gotta go.
Finally, the flight attendant told him he
couldnt pray there anymore.
I didnt have the heart to tell him he was
praying in the wrong direction anyways,
Mecca was on the other side of the plane.

Watched the movie "The Grand" on my new
mp3 player during the flight to pass the time.
Decent movie, lots of poker player/poker celeb
cameo's. Plot was a little weak, but funny
just the same.
