All Gamey At The Missoula, Montana Airport

Hunting is big in the West and, for some reason, showing off what you could potentially bag is considered a great way to greet tourists arriving at the airport. Missoula has quite a collection of stuffed ambassadors in its terminal.

Who doesn't want to text mom to say you've already seen a bear - at baggage claim?

Or start your big game hunt at the car rental area.

Turkey in a box. Protect your PIN, you never know who's watching.

Bear with us in the waiting area.

Flying The Ethiopian Skies

Ahh, hopping around a foreign country through its small town airports. Ethiopia was dandy, nice airports, easy ins and outs. With the airports only processing a couple of flights a day, you don't have to worry about things getting over-crowded and backed up.

Hello Lalibella!

Luggage, waiting to get on a plane. And people waiting for their luggage.

Empty carts, also waiting.

Did we mention the waiting at an airport, no matter the size?

Something must be happening, the seats have been vacated. But not much, just the crowd shifting a bit closer to the departure door. So close!

Finally!

Lithuanian Layover

Ahh, the Foreign Service life. Exotic places to live, thrilling travel opportunities. And airports, lots of waiting in airports. What to do? Wander and take photographs.
