- finish packing at 9:05. Flight leaves at 11:30
- arrive at airport to a huge security line, but make it
to my gate... Only to find NO ONE there. Brief panic takes over and the first
of many deep breaths.
- first 2 hours of the flight were all about deep
breaths. Holy smokes that was some serious turbulence. Turbulence + red eye
flight + middle seat = bad combination!!
- arrive to a supposedly delayed connection. All I want
is a coffee and some water. I think I have 3 hours... Just kidding. My
connection is in 40 minutes in a different terminal - it involves a bus ride.
- more sprinting, more sweating, more deep breaths. The
lady on the bus is not amused that I am anxious about making this flight (even
though it is the only flight out today)
- Sprinting through the terminal, I finally arrive at the
gate to find that it hasn't even boarded yet. All I could do was laugh because
it had been quite the adventure! Made the flight, saw the Island from the air, and Colleen was there waiting
for me!
