By 6:05, they still hadn't opened the doors (they open at 6:00), so instead of just tapping on my watch, I walked around to the 24-hour drivethru, and said, "Do you open at 6?"
"Yes," we do the guy working the window said.
"Well, there's a bunch of us waiting to get in at that door on the other side of the building."
"Yes, we know." He said.
I walked back around, and by the time I got there, they were unlocking the door.
We left for the tunnel at about 6:25, and this, visually, is how the next hour-and-a-half unfolded:
