Thursday started off so well. Woke up in Indianapolis hotel and had breakfast. Managed to top up my wifi hotspot so didn't have to go to t mobile in the end. Walked to the bus station which took all of four minutes. Got on bus/coach, and i was on my way to Cincinnati.

Then the change there for Atlanta is where it started. The connection bus was an hour late, which meant my second connection to Miami i was going to miss by half hour! Goddamn it! Anyway, we headed out, and i watched the arrival ETA fluctuate: ten minutes before departure, ten minutes after departure.

We arrived in Atlanta fifteen minutes after departure. What we did get was a greeting of fifteen plus police cars, several ambulances, and a "walk in the back way as there has been a shooting". Mmm.

We grudgingly walked into the bus station pissed off that we had missed our connection. And i timed it too. Arrival in Miami was 14:40, which meant i could head to a hotel and check right in. Now, it was a case of being given a replacement ticket (without even a sorry for any inconvenience), which meant i had to hang around here for eleven hours, and not get into Miami until three in the morning. Which meant another eleven hours before i could check into hotel. All this going on whilst they were still mopping up the blood!

Happy days.
