holiday from Georgia to New York

holiday from Georgia to New York?
would you say 1 week is long enough for a road trip from Atlanta Georgia to New york? if we were to spend 2 days in new york and 2 in Atlanta that would leave us 3 days to drive through South Carolina all the way up to Washington DC where we would either keep driving to new york or get a flight from Washington DC to New York? is 3 days long enough to drive through these 5 states and still be able to see things or would we have to none stop drove and would you say that the drive through pennsylvania is long and its worth flighing over that or would that not take to long? So really what im asking is this - is 7 days long enough to have an enjoyable road trip where we can stop and see things from Georgia to New York ( if we were to spend 2 days in Georgia and 2 in new york) and how long would you say the drive is ( without stops ) would you say that its too much for 1 week or do you think it would work?

don't you need at least one number? i can see the variable... not to sure what the number would be
2 :
2.3 TIMES AS FAST
3 :
if s is the distance travelled by the jet and t is the time taken during the first trip, speed during first trip=s/t speed during return trip=s/(t-1/2) units/hr

Whats the nicest thing you've ever done for someone at the airport or on the airplane

Whats the nicest thing you've ever done for someone at the airport or on the airplane?
Yesterday on my way to Chandler Arizona to move in with my aunt & uncle I had a connecting flight in Washington DC at Washington-Dulles Airport [it was originally sunday and Chicago but flight got canceled]. On the plane I sat next to this old lady who spoke Spanish. She needed help with things. I told her the time. I helped her open her food. I helped her get what she wanted to drink and eat by translating what she said from Spanish to English to the flight attendent because the flight attendent couldn't understand her and I took 1 year of Spanish in high school. I felt so good helping her out and I always feel good when I help someone out =]

I bought someone several cocktails between Dallas and Oakland once. I hate to fly and she had the seat next to me. We had a lovely time and the time "flew."

On a flight from JFK to London Heathrow I found myself sitting next to a man of about 22. He was virtually blind but very intelligent. Chatting to him on the flight I discovered his destination was only 4 miles from my home. My car was parked at Heathrow. I was able to give him a ride to his front door. We are still friends. Ian M

I was a crewmember one evening on a flight from DFW to IAD. The load was pretty light and at the very last moment they boarded a woman who was obviously in distress. It turns out her husband, who was a truck driver, had been in an accident. She got a call telling her that he was in the hospital and that she needed to get there as quickly as possible. She'd started in TUL and this was her connecting flight. I began speaking with her and discovered that she'd received a call at work and left straight from there for the airport with no time to pack so much as a toothbrush. To make matters worse, she didn't even know if he was dead or alive. You can imagine her stress level having to endure this, what must've seemed like a never ending, 3 hr. flight. With the approval of my fellow flight attendants I sat with her and talked the entire way trying to make the time go by as quickly as possible. We finally arrived around 2300 and I asked how she was going to get to the hospital. She said she guessed she'd rent a car but had no idea where she was going. I offered to drive her and thankfully she accepted. We got to the hospital around midnight and found out that her husband had been seriously injured but would survive. I offered her my spare bedroom for the night but she (obviously) preferred to stay in the hospital room with her husband. The next day, knowing she didn't have a change of clothes, toothbrush, anything, I made up a bag of essentials and took them over to her. Her husband ended up staying in the hospital for several weeks and I continued to check on them both. He's fine now and back to driving long haul. I can't tell you how good it made me feel to know that I was in a unique position to help this poor stranger. I kept thinking to myself how grateful I would be to someone who helped me had I been in a similiar situation.

I am a former flight attendant and I htink I have done some really nice things for ppl. But I also felt that was part of my job, that is one reason I wanted to be a flight attendant. That being said I can tell you a story of one of the greatest acts of kindness I have seen a passenger do for another passenger. I was working a flight from MIA to PHL, it was on an older 727, right before the airlines discontinued using them. This young woman was traveling alone with her 4 month old baby, sitting towards the rear of the aircraft. Shortly after takeoff, I ran into the lav to wash my hands and prepare for our meal service. All of a sudden one of my fellow flight attendants was banging ont he door telling me a passenger had been hit in the head with a carry on bag. Turns out a woman got up and opened the bins (you know the ones who don't listen to the warnings about getting up when they shouldn't) and she hot a lady in the head with her massive rollaboard bag. The lady she hit..the young woman traveling alone with her infant daughter. Being a nurse, I went up and did a quick neuro eval and she said she felt fine, but I was uneasy. I asked a fellow passenger to keep an eye on her and come get me if she starts changing. About 15 mins later, she became confused, disoriented, vomitting, the whole 9 yards. We notified the cpt that an emergency medical landing was needed, and I called for the help of a Dr or nurse or paramedic onboard. I was not allowed to work under my license (but I would have if I had to). I got another RN and a paramedic to assist and she started seizing....so we three were trying to stabalize her as we were landing in Dulles. My colleagues had taken the baby at this point to keep her safe and occupied, and we knew that the medics would come on and take her to the hospital. As we pulled into the gate and opened the back hatch for the medics to board, a very kind and concerend lady traveling with her family tapped me on the shoulder. She asked what would happen to the lady's daughter. I told her I assumed they would keep her in the nursery until they could reunite their family. This sweet, kind, generous woman offered to get off the plane and leave her husband and kids to travel up to PHL, and she would stay behind and go to the hospital with this young woman to care for her infant daughter and keep her close to her mother. I have never witnessed anything so selfless on an airplane since. She said goodbye to her family and went to the hospital. They later wrote in to my supervisor that all went well, and the mother was fine. The good samaritan had family where we landed and they got her to PHL. There are still kind people in this world!! SOrry to ramble!
