Our Journey Begins

Hola everyone!! This is Marcia blogging tonight because Dan is sleeping on a table! The team is testing their flexibility tonight. Due to bad weather in Chicago, our flight was delayed until 7:30. So 11 people had to scramble to get their flights changed because we were definitely not going to make our connection to Houston. So with the help of a very friendly United ticket counter person, all 11 of us traveling from Appleton got rebooked on a Continental flight to Houston tomorrow morning.

So we are enjoying a lovely night at O'Hare. We are keeping ourselves occupied by playing cribbage, going for walks, eating, and trying to sleep where ever one can find comfort in a busy airport. With the help of a nice TSA person, we found a nice area in the international terminal where we plan to hang out all night until the Continental ticketing area opens.

Stephanie is heading down from Door County and will meet up with us here in an hour or so. The 11 traveling from Appleton are ending up on the same flight Stephanie is taking.

Tomorrow we will meet up with Kathleen at the San Salvador airport which will make our team whole!! We will take a 2 hour bus ride to Santa Ana to the Hotel Sahara. I think there will be lots of tired people tomorrow so if you don't see a blog entry tomorrow night you will know why.

Until tomorrow or Sunday!

  2. Hola teammates! I write to you from aboard the plane... Despite a delay in Chicago I made it to Miami on time, but I'm held up here... Maintenance is still checking out the plane so I have no clue how much longer it will be. I called Paty and let her know and I believe you are all on your way to the hotel. I hope I get a free bag of peanuts for the inconvenience... See you in a few hours!!
