[hartfield-jackson international airport, atlanta, ga]

Popeyes
I've always seen Popeyes restaurants, but today was the first time I actually had anything from there. at firs tI thought it was just fried chicken like KFC or Churches. but it is actually a cajun fast food place. i had the 3 strips with fries meal plus a side of popcorn shrimp. ant is was sure a lot of shrimp. I wish there were more cajun style places in California. I thought my meal also came with a side, but apparently not. they have cajun rice, red beans and rice, peppers, and other regular sides that you would find at KFC or something. The prices were pretty decent here in the airport. I wonder how much it is outside of the airport.

[best western airport east, atlanta, ga]

Stuck in ~~Salt Lake City~~ Atlanta
After 45 minutes of sleep ~~last night~~ this morning. I am stuck here in Atlanta. It is now 8:00pm and my flight to Zurich doesn't leave until 5:40pm tomorrow. My original schedule was as follows, SFO-ATL, then ATL-ZRH. But the lady at the Delta counter in San Francisco told me that I needed some scrub tickets because I was traveling internationally. And the only place to get those was from a SkyWest ticket counter. Either way I was traveling east. Salt Lake City was the closest big SkyWest hub, so i decided to fly there and knew that the desks would be open by the time I got there. So I get to Salt Lake City and the ticket desk tell me that they don't have any scrubs. they told me to go ask the Delta desk. I went to the desk that was going to Atlanta and they said that I needed to go outside to get them. I figured that I should just get on the SLC-ATL flight and try to get them there, but I was number 19 on the standby list on an extremely oversold flight. I didn't get on that one and then had to wait several hours for the next ATL flight which would get me there after the Zurich flight leaves. But either way, I need to get to ATL. It turns out that I could have gotten those scrubs from any Delta desk and I could have been on that original SFO-ATL flight which would have given me enough time to get to Zurich. What the hell?!? But this stuff does make for some interesting stories. Now I only get to spend 2 days in switzerland instead of 3.
