We Made It!


(This clock marks the a.m. time at the airport when we finally got off the plane in our lovely home of Salt Lake City.)

We are finally home from our DC Trip. It was awesome!! We had a great time, saw as much as we possibly could, have extremely tired feet, are glad to be home, but had a great time. We couldn't have asked for much better . . . except for our flight home yesterday. Our flight should have left DC at 6:00 and then landed us in SLC at 11:30 p.m. Instead, we were stuck in a lightning storm!! We boarded the plane in DC at around 7:30 p.m., we sat on the runway until 9:30 and finally got to SLC about 3:30 this morning. Ugh.

Lucky for us, our plane in Atlanta was delayed. It was delayed because they didn't have a crew. It's crew was on our plane, sitting on the runway in DC. Lucky for us, they held the plane in Atlanta for the crew, instead of cancelling the flight. If not, we would have had to sit in Atlanta all night long until being able to get on another flight sometime this morning. Phew!! We lucked out and were blessed on that one. Unfortunately, none of our bags made it on the Atlanta plane, but they are supposed to bring it to my house in the next half hour.

I'll post more details and pictures about the trip later, but it was a great experience!
