All four of us got to the airport on time this morning in Nashville on time (well maybe a couple of minutes late). However, the adventures started quickly when we found out that our flight to JFK was completely cancelled. So, we proceeded to discuss flight options with the weirdly cavalier woman at the gate desk. After going through many unavailable options we finally got booked on a flight to Philly. There was bad weather all the way from Baltimore to upstate New York, but the flight was actually really nice! However, right when we stepped into the Philly airport, we heard “Flight to Brussels now boarding”. We booked it. We ran/walked so fast, and definitely got a workout. Once we were at a full sprint, I could finally see our gate in the distance. We were some of the last people to make onto the overseas flight to Brussels. So here I am, cozy on the Brussels flight, eating complimentary mac n’ cheese. The grand adventures have already started and we are not even in Europe yet, much less Brussels. More to come!
P.S. Diana acts crazy on Ambien.
Added travel note: Once we were boarding our final flight of three in Brussels, we found out that our spots on the plane had actually been cancelled by American Airlines who just assumed that we cancelled our whole trip because they cancelled the first leg of flight to JFK. That was another adventure. It’s a full flight but thankfully they got us a seat! We are now flying over the Black Forest according to the GPS map on board, and have about 7 hours and 20 mins to go. Hot lunch and drinks now....
