Sleeping At The Airport

Today I had to catch a flight from Edinburgh to Dublin at 8 o'clock in the morning. Therefore I said to my self 'why don't I sleep the whole night at the airport?', and that is exactly what I did.

Last night I left from Edinburgh at approximately nine o'clock in the evening. I arrived at Edinburgh airport around 9:30. I headed straight to the bathroom where I brushed my teeth and then I headed on to finding a nice spot in order for me to get some sleep. Surprisingly I successfully managed to sleep until six o'clock in the morning and then I woke up and made my way to the boarding gate.

The question is 'why did I sleep at the airport?'. There are two parts in this answer. The first one is obvious. It costs less. Instead of paying another 20 pounds in order to stay at a hostel I slept for free at the airport. The second one is the fact that I prefer sleeping at the airport than waking up at five in the morning and walking in the freezing cold in order to catch a bus that would get me to the airport.

Overall some of you may think that this makes no sense. However if you think about it, it makes a lot of sense. And of course it is an experience that I will never forget and in fact I will be doing it tomorrow night as well.
