But then the other 11 months its brown, white and windy. And yeah, expensive. Can't buy alcohol on sundays except with a meal, so everyone goes to the airport bar for the 50 cent corndog special on sunday.

Place is a dirt road dump as far as I was concerned. -tJ Some people are like slinkies - not really good for anything, but they bring a smile to your face when pushed down the stairs.
