And the best part,

After getting your 1.5 hours of quality sleep between 01:00 and 02:30 at the walrus colony during the sort. You got to get up and fly 3 more legs only to finally flop in a crappy cut rate hotel with no way to block the sun light or the noise from the 6 lane highway and an A/C unit that would loudly clank on and off in between ineffective periods of blowing hot air.

The good news was, at 19:00 you got to do it all over again for 5 nights in a row!

Man I miss flying DC-8’s all night, every night, well, not really, at all, not even a little bit!!
