The Joy of Jet Lag
Travel Blog • Jim Benning • 04.02.02 | 7:45 PM ET
Jet lag gets a lot of bad press, but not in Sunday’s New York Times. In an essay, W.D. Wetherell writes that he rather enjoys it. Take the delightful bout he experienced after arriving in England: “The drive in to central London, dreary enough in reality, seemed incredibly splendid, a veritable yellow brick road, to the point that I stared at the nondescript bed-sitters and dreary industrial parks with as much excitement and interest as if they were Buckingham Palace, the Tower and Westminster Abbey combined.” We wonder if Wetherell has ever tried malaria. The fever-induced hallucinations, we hear, are fabulous.
