detour

What a wonderful start to our trip! *Insert sarcasm here* From a four hour flight delay, one missed plane and severely chapped lips- I am exhausted. Still optimistic though! (Thank the pills for that one). We had planned to be in Canada tonight but for obvious reasons, that didn’t happen. Instead, we made it ALL THE WAY TO… *drum roll please*… Denver, Colorado. You see- we missed our flight from Denver to Great Falls, Montana. In other words, we got screwed over. (THANKS A LOT STORMY WEATHER!) Anyways. We had hoped to catch the next flight to Great Falls but there wasn’t one. So tomorrow, we’ll hop on a flight to Seattle at 9 in the morning. But we won’t board for Great Falls until 9 o’clock that night. Guess luck just isn’t feeling us on this one… Whatever. For the time being we got a free hotel room with unlimited food. Maybe missing flights isn’t so bad after all! 😉

Only problem is grandparents were expecting us tonight on plane number 355. With no way to get in contact with them, they’re left waiting for us in the States, not knowing that we won’t be there until tomorrow night.. on a different plane number. We sent an agent to hunt them down and pass the message. (I’m counting on you personal agent dude!) Not to mention our luggage left us to Great Falls on the plane we missed. So, we’re left with nothing but what we brought with us in our carry on bags. Something told me something would happen to our bags. Just like the typical American movie, we were delayed and missed the flight. Our luggage having gone missing was just the cherry on top! What a joy!

If all goes as planned grandma and grandpa will find us in Montana tomorrow night and we will road trip our way back to Canada! 🙂
