It's so inconvenient to have to rearrange your plans, stressful to find a place to stay and by the end of a trip I'm just ready to get home. I was so nervous traveling to and from my sister's wedding in Miami at the end of January. There was a snow storm 5 days before which delayed a lot of flights going to Florida. We lucked out thankfully. And then there was a snowstorm predicted for two days after which had flights cancelled before it even began. We were fortunate again to be able to fly out as scheduled, but we landed in the midst of a snowstorm on a very snowy runway. <br /><br />I hope you make it home safely.Aimeehttp://amazinginmotion.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8798785837432777875.post-78405065269608360082015-05-11T17:09:59.002-05:002015-05-11T17:09:59.002-05:00I'm glad that you made the best of it!

Nice that it worked out for you too.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15789773999034928321noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8798785837432777875.post-23927799226014397392015-05-11T14:25:35.122-05:002015-05-11T14:25:35.122-05:00Funny how that type of thing works - it isn't ...Funny how that type of thing works - it isn't always correlated to actual impact. Definitely sounds like you can't get out of your own way with this. I can laugh because it is you and not me :) Oh well, glad you had fun - and good luck getting home - travel safe!Michael Andersonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03061568790581429107noreply@blogger.com
