A Word a Week Photo Challenge: WAITING

Oh, the Places We See — Sun, 19 Jan 2014 12:48:08 +0000

If you have flown recently, you know that flights are scheduled for departure at ungodly early hours. (At least it’s ungodly to me to leave at 5:15 AM!!!) But what I’ve noticed is this: airports — and travelers — are adapting to the new times, but it’s still a hurry-up-and-wait proposition!

For the Word a Week Photo Challenge: WAITING, here are Chicago O’Hare folks up and at ‘em — yet waiting — at 6:00 AM this week!

1. People waiting in line for hot coffee and pastries at Brioche Doree. (Ya gotta have something to wake you up at 6, but I wonder what time the percolator got going!)

2. Some folks spent time checking their early-morning emails or eating a wrapped-in-paper breakfast in the waiting area.

3. Others checked the departure status of their flight.

4. And some just waited and waited and waited . . .

The Word a Week Challenge: Vibrant comes at a good time: I just got a new camera (still getting used to it!) and the flowers outside my back door are in full vibrant bloom! Hope you enjoy my first attempts at capturing nature’s beauty.
