Okay. So, I was just entertaining myself, as I have a voracious tendency to do, by sitting on travel message boards - 'cause it's ALMOST as fun to sit in suburbia, than to actually be on the RoAd. But ANYWAYS!! Somebody on Lonely Planet said that there are very, very cheap flights from Ft. Lauderdale, generally, to anywhere in Central and Southern America via Spirit Airlines. So, I go to Spirit airline website to check this out. And holy SHIT, guys!! They have this glorious club, called the $9 flight club! Granted, you have to pay $60 to get into this 'club' of theirs, but then!! You can apparently get flights, for $9! All over the place! (Well... $69, really, but... STILL!!). I'm sure there's some catches; not all of the flights qualify, but they have this nifty little search feature that allows you to compare days, and differences in prices. Even their regular flights aren't too bad, as long as you're leaving from Ft. Slaughterdale; Guatemala City and the like for $109. Not too bad, not too bad at all, I say. Anyways, here's the link:

Can you tell I got a little excited? Yes, yes I did... I know we're all supposed to be like, crusties and oogles and doodles and goggles and trainhopping, hitchhiking extraordinaires, but sometimes, man... flyin' ain't half bad, except security can SUCK IT. Anyways. Take care, nowz.
