Author's note: I started typing this in Chicago while waiting to fly to Michigan, so it is a bit dated. However, it is still relevant. The reason it is a long time coming is that Andrea kept the lap top, on which this was saved, with her while she stayed home and I returned to Kansas.
I digress....
One thing that has interested me for a long time has been people. People watching seems to be in my family's genes. But I think that it is just our nature as people. Airports present prime targets for people watching. I just enjoy seeing what people wear.
You see the people that travel in comfort: jeans or sweatpants (for those who want to be extra comfortable), tee shirt, tennis shoes (or sandles in the summer time).
The professional traveler: dress shirt, dress pants, bluetooth headset, cell phone used to text other professional travelers.
Military people: self explanatory.
Skanky sorority girls and over dressed frat boys with their Hollister plastered too tight tee shirts.
The family with the screaming kid, the family with the quite kid (the former outnumbers the latter).
That is about it, at least that I have seen. I am sure that there are tons of others, but they are less frequently spotted than others.
I believe that I have now moved categories...from comfortable traveler to traveler with family and screaming kids.
