Pink is the best color of all, by far. Seriously though, chillin on a bus is way cooler than a plane cuz u can actually stand up and not get yelled at by a flight attendant, not to mention we can watch anime the whole way there on the tv screens. The airlines usually don't play anime on a trip from orlando to atlanta, at least from my experience.

Also, we are only little past the "break even on time" distance, when you consider time to the airport, check-in time, wait at the gate, boarding, the flight itself, taxi to the gate, bagage collection, wait for transportation to the hotel, etc. The bus trip should be about 8 hours. When you add it all up, flying would be maybe 5 hours. If I were making the Space Coast to Atlanta trip by myself, I'd almost definitely drive, while if I'm going from here to my my "old" home in Indiana, I fly unless I need to get a car or lots of stuff from one place to the other. Flying is MUCH quicker for the FL to IN trip which is about a 17 hour drive, even with only minimal break time.
