What falls under the category of "Legit"
Let's discuss.
Legit is:
Pre-Boarding
- The Emrites lounge at SFO
- The champagne (truly French) and Middle Eastern meets English buffet in said lounge
- Minted Pea soup; I'm seriously in love
On-Route
- Leather cushy seats with body massaging capabilities (don't underestimate the power of a butt massage)
- Seats with foot room the length of my car
- Chairs with Transformer-like powers: Would I like to lie completely down? Why yes I would, sir!
- Majestic mattresses that accompany these gifts from God
- One of the best (and longest) nights sleep I've gotten in ages
- Awaking to realize that we have 30 minutes before landing in a 16 hour flight and being awake for approximately 4 of them. We. Freakin. Win. Halverson/Chan: 1 Long Ass Travel: 0. BOO YAH
Layovers
- Having ~7 hours to kill and finding that they fly by bc the Dubai airport is full of awesomeness
- The Emrites lounge at DXB
- Getting a 25 minute leg and foot massage (1st time for the Chan man!)
- Playstation game rooms for kids (coughadultscough) to pass the time with
- Free food and drink (did you say crazy automatic coffee drink maker? check)
- The handheld sprayer in the ladies loo (no pictures, this is a Rated G blog, people!!)
Overall
- Realizing that a trip you've been anticipating for 6-7 months (and parts of it since you were 16 yrs old) is about to begin and you've immensely enjoyed the travel, rather than just tolerated it as a means to an end
- Stoked bc my travel partner is freakin awesome
- Actually looking forward to the 9 hr flight to Cape Town
I completely realize that I'm using an old (possibly 90's?) term to illustrate my enthusiasm.
Be thankful, I could have used "fly", "fresh", "rad" (hmmm, will probably actually use that one at some point), "clutch" or "hella cool".
Here's to using old slang to describe new adventures....

Don't worry 'legit' is cutting edge over there. They're just getting their big theater release of Will Smith's 'Wild Wild West.'
