Customs, cars and timezones

First up I have to say that I love holidays, I like the exploring, I like to see all the new places, the different people and here the different voices. However their are a few things I don't like.

1. I don't like flying. my stomach dances, my head hurts and it means far too much sitting around in cramped conditions. Great views out of the window through of the ice flows many thousands of feet below.
2. I hate travel based disorganisation and yesterday was terrible for that. 2 hours at US customs in a very short but very slow moving queue, followed by nearly an hour waiting for a rental car to be ready.
3. I am not fond of changing time zones. Both myself and the little un woke up at 4.30am local time. going to regret that later today I expect!

On the plus side, I am on holiday, sitting in the reception of a nice Holiday Inn Express in Pennsylvania with free breakfast when I get that far and free Wi-Fi to write this on. Today will be a better day, but I think I might have to schedule in a nap or two.
