Grounded!
Well, there was this storm you see….somewhere….that was preventing many people from going anywhere, and causing many blood pressures to rise, and many people to get frustrated with airline employees, because they obviously control the weather and did this to spite everyone. Here is how we spent our first day on vacation…
We sat and waited for our plane to board…
We sat as it was delayed for 20 more minuets…
45 minuets later the pilot came over the sound system and told us the worst case scenario…could be 90 minuets more. But…he was optimistic, loaded the plane and taxied in line…so we could make a run for it.
We sat….
I read…
I napped…
We taxied back to the terminal…
After many lines, phone calls, we are now booked on a flight to Halifax tomorrow morning.
We will miss our air Canada flight to Deer Lake Newfoundland….which we can’t reschedule….which will mean we won’t be there to rent our car….which means that our highly scheduled plans are no longer scheduled…so for the next 15 days we will have the opportunity to be creative.
We are good at creative.
We nearly lost our luggage but found it again.
Checked into the airport hotel.
Ordered room service (which was very good), and got a new car reservation.
Took a shower, and got a wake up call for 3:45am.
Yay vacation!
PS. Shawn will have to tell you all about how this is somehow New York’s fault.

Airportage
We are taking advantage of arriving at the airport early by enjoying lunch and cold beverage. It is technically afternoon, so we don't feel bad at all.
