Path through NYC
Here is a Google Map of my path through NYC from (6/23 to 6/24 at 9:30 pm) and then (6/24 at 9:30 pm to 6/27).  All this data thanks to Google Latitude and the fine folks at Skynet.  Most of it’s correct but there are a few stray points where my iPhone didn’t have very good GPS reception.  More details on my trip and photos in a subsequent post.

“I thought that NYC would be more metropolitan than this. That Frank Sinatra’s full of sh!t man.” Oh wait. We were diverted to Allentown, PA because we were low on fuel after flying in a holding pattern for half an hour. Hopefully onto NYC soon. Ps. I didn’t think it was possible to make a more uncomfortable airline seat, but AirTran has really overachieved. Very...
