Airport Trivia
No doubt about it, I had way too much time on my hands. But by being the type of guy that I am, sketching out a map of Mexico City’s Benito Juárez International Airport seemed like a good idea. And why not? It could save a trip to the airport, provide confidence for those who want to go it alone, help other missionaries who find part of their lives spent there. Out of that came a little fun and hopefully a bit of useful information to boot.
