after all that airport hell, I am home. Happy to be here although i miss all my new friends soo much. The trip was overall really fun despite the little issues. Vince and I resolved our fight to only start another 4hrs prior to my leaving (3am Greek time!) It was sad when i left.. We cried, Jenn & Alicia were balling like crazy and it was sad. The guys all came out (all guys minus Vince<- with good reason.) when we were leaving, it was sad.. lots of tears and pictures and hugs and promises to keep in touch. The Athens airport was pretty busy for 3am.. crazy. we flew to Frankfurt, Germany where we split with the Texas kids (that was sad too) Vinh and I managed to get ourselves lost but soon found the gate. The flight was long and delayed by 30min. We finally arrived in JFK airport(NY) 8 hrs later. That was horrible. We got VERY lost and were aimlessly roaming around the never ending airport. Finally we got to the gate and thats when the waiting began. we got there at 1:30pm. Our flight to Ft.Lauderdale was at 5:45pm. We were waiting there and I heard an announcement over the loud speaker saying that Ft.Laudy passengers could switch to an earlier West Palm Beach flight if they wished. I went right up and changed my ticket. Yes. Now 5:25 pm to West Palm Beach. Due to crappy weather the plane was delayed until 5:55pm <- not bad considering the Ft.Laudy plane was delayed from 5:45 to 7:40 <- ouch! yes well. we boarded the plane around 6:00pm. Late. O well, earlier the Ft.Laudy. This is when hell part deux struck. Crappy weather plus runway traffic.. we sat on the plane from 6pm-9:30pm when we finally took off. I was asleep by then. My cell phone battery died so i went to bed. Fun. Well arrived in the WPB airport at 11:55pm. Good to be home. its now 3:15am and I can't sleep. Figures right? ...disappointed you weren't on... |
