1. In the 4 or so terminals I visited in Chicago-O'Hare Airport, I found a Children's Museum (not-so fancy play area) and only one moving sidewalk.
2. Never having had more than a couple Disney movies growing up, I didn't realize how repetitive children's videos are, especially when watched daily. I could now tell you more than anyone needs to know about Pygmy Marmocets, 3-toed Sloths, Maned Wolves, and Condors. can also sing many songs about jumping, running and flying to help rescue these animals.
3. Condors do not fly after the sun goes down, but if you're with Diego, you could possibly find the giant Condor who will be able to raise the sun into the sky and give you some more daylight hours...I need to find that Condor, I think.
4. I noticed quite a large (to me) number of people (in the many hours that I spent in the airport) carrying around cylindrical containers on their travels. Most were very long, several were too skinny to be carrying fishing poles, which really was my only guess as to what could possibly be inside (my other thought would have been firearms, but I'm thinking they'd make you check those these days). I'm still curious to know what would be so popular, if anyone cares to hazard a guess or two...(or in case you really know?)
5. Ducks who are used to getting fed get kinda pissed if you visit their pond without food. It was a species I've never seen before, and they started hissing and approaching menacingly, as if to take whatever they could find by force, which would probably have been Lincoln.
6. I liked the spaces between the terminals at O'Hare. There was one area that was filled by paintings from local residents, but in general the spaces were dimly lit, almost empty, much more quiet than the rest of the airport, and a little lonely. There was just something peaceful there.
7. There were also parts of O'Hare that reminded me of the Airport in Lima. I can't really describe it too well, but it did.
apparently I learned many useless things by walking around in an airport for several hours. At least the time didn't go to waste, right?
8. Playing Zelda: Twilight Princess for approximately 20 hours got me nowhere near finishing, but totally made me want a Gamecube (or Wii) so I could keep trying.

The tube things might have blueprints in them. I know I delivered a lot of round tube things to architecture firms as a seasonal UPS delivery driver. I saw one of them packaged too, and it had plans or blueprints or something similar being put into it. But...how many people are carrying around building plans at the airport?
