Takeoff was a little bumpy

I almost forgot my iPod. The plane from JFK sat on the runway over an hour, which happened to be the only hour I slept. I almost missed my connection to Baku in Kiev, but my backpack didn't. Yeah, I've got no backpack. Supposedly, it will be waiting for me at the airport tomorrow after 7pm.

The drive from Heyder Aliev airport to Baku is one of the ugliest rides from an airport in the world. Houston Intercontinental ain't got nothing on GYD. Coming in to Baku, the first thing that hits you is the smell. It's smells like one big oil refinery.
