Apparently Vegas isn’t ready to let me go. I arrived at the airport, ready to catch my flight to California when I checked in to see a giant DELAYED sign on the computer screen. Maintenance has me stranded at my gate waiting another 2 and half hours before I make my escape from the city of sin. My options at the airport aren’t enticing. Slot machines to my left and a Burger King behind me are what I have to work with. Thankfully free wi-if is on my side so I decided to share a few ideas if you find yourself in the same boat at some point traveling..
The following will be keeping my brain engaged and spirits high as I wait and watch the time pass.
1) SPOTIFY : My ears are always open and searching for new music. Brendan James album “simplify” was recommended and this singer/songwriters soft vocals have helped to keep me calm despite my irritation.
More mellow tunes on my playlist include; Josh Garrels, Jamie Woon, and Allen Stone.
2) Apartment Therapy : leaves me aching for my own home and a generous budget to decorate with. *sigh* for now.. DIY projects it is!
3) TUMBLR inspo: abounding happiness . Quite simply, the site has pretty pictures 🙂
4) TED talks: 1500+ talks to stir your curiosity. I personally love Bene Brown’s, The power of vulnerability . It’s a game changer!
5) MINDBODYGREEN : wellness guide covering everything from yoga, recipes, green living and overall health.
Asking all travelers- what helps you pass the time when you have unexpected travel delays? Inspire me! I still have an hour to go 😉
