Well after hanging out at the airport for 9 hours we finally
headed to the hotel at 1:00pm yesterday and pretty much didn’t take no for an answer for
checking in early. It was such a nice room. Honestly any room would have been
nice after sitting on the airport floor all day, but this was very nice! Jams
were on immediately and we ordered pizza that was delivered to our room! Then
had Italian food delivered for dinner. Preston and I ended up taking a little
nap-not sure what the kids were doing??? Nice to just relax.
EEK! Our hotel must have been too nice and we must not have
wanted to leave; Preston’s alarm didn’t go off and luckily he woke up. It was
4:15am!! Check in for our flight was between 3:30-5:30am: you don’t check in by
that time your seats become available to space A travelers. We got dressed so fast
and made it to the airport and checked in at 5:25am. That’s packing 8
suitcases, 5 people dressed, loading and unloading from the shuttles, the shuttle
ride, and trip to the ticket counter. Phew, I’m tired all over again!
Then the news came-delayed AGAIN! AGAIN…they told us at
8:30am. Everything was on track and we actually felt good from our “extra”
sleep. We opted to get our luggage even though most left it on the plane. I
thought it was important to have clean clothes and my hygiene stuff. Although
had I’d known it would take 3 hours to actually get our luggage, I may have
changed my mind. So here we were again. In the airport with our 8 suitcases…
We were able to extend our stay in the same room for another night, thankfully.
Some families had to drive over an hour away because there were NO rooms
available. We took the luggage back to the room and then rented a car to take a
trip to see Shawn and the kiddos. It was a nice visit that I wish could have
been longer, but back to the hotel to see if we will even leave tomorrow?
