I suppose I wasn’t really surprised to have my flight delayed (unfortunately that happens more often than not) or that the hotel didn’t offer a courtesy shuttle (even though the hotel is a very large chain) or even that the restaurant we stumbled upon was extremely expensive (it looked pricey the second we walked through the front door) but, O’Hare Airport, what’s with all the pay phone banks??? This far into the 21st Century and you still have all these pay phones?? Weird.

BTW, in order to stay within the amount of money we’re allowed to spend on dinners, I was only able to purchase a bowl of soup and an appetizer at the restaurant for my meal. Entree’s? Forget it!
