Yesterday when I went to return our rental car and pick up our lost luggage
I had to take a shuttle bus from the rental car center to the airport.
There were two busses, one for terminal A & B and one for terminal C & E.
(We don’t talk about terminal D…)

I was going to E, so got on that bus. We pulled out and drove around the
airport until we came to terminal C.
The doors opened and a bunch of folks got out.

One woman got out then jumped back in.
“Is this terminal C?” she asked.
“Yes,” he said, pointing to the big sign that said “Terminal C” just
outside of the bus.
“Terminal C of the airport?” she asked.
He looked confused. I looked at all the airplanes you could see out the
bus windows.
“Yes, this is the airport,” he finally said.
“You’re sure?” she asked.
He looked out the window again as an airplane roared over us on takeoff.
“Yes, I’m sure this is the airport.”
She looked around with squinted eyes.
“OK,” she said. “You better be right!”
She got off and went into the terminal.

“Funny,” I said to the driver. “I don’t think this looks much like a train
station.”
“It would be funny if something like that didn’t happen every single day,”
he said to me.

There are many things I’m thankful for in life.
I can now add “not being a bus driver at Logan Airport” to that list…
