Sitting in Starbucks on Euston St. in Camden . Exhausted from the plane ride . I left yesterday from Savannah on a plane that resembled an airborne pencil -- so small that , when we landed in Charlotte , we deplaned on the runway and walked to the airport . During the layover in Charlotte , I bought a crappy $ 8 sandwich and a Starbuck 's coffee and sat by the window to read Blink ( great book so far ) .
According to the above context, answer the following question.
Why is the narrator buying overpriced food ?


They have poor options in the airport .
