in Checking In, Travels

Vacation Extended!

We got our vacation extended! That’s right, we got some extra vacation this morning when we missed our flight out of Seattle by mere minutes. If we’re lucky, we can catch space on a flight through Chicago. If not, we’ll spend another night here in Seattle.

The Doubletree’s airport shuttle doomed us, as it arrived much later than expected to pick us up. By the time it arrived, half the hotel was waiting to board it. What should have been a ten minute ride, tops, across the street took 20-25 minutes.

Keep smiling, I keep telling myself. Keep smiling.

  1. Funny you caught the first ferry off the island but didn’t get to the airport on time. Maybe your subconscious looked at the weather forecast for Raleigh (97!) and decided it wanted to stay where it was? Seattle should have a high of a pleasant 76 today.

    Did you have to buy new tickets/pay to change the flight or is the airline being nice?

  2. Southwest will get us home, today or tomorrow at worst. Folks are lining up now for the Chicago flight and its looking like we’re not going to be successful here.

    We’ll just do the best we can.
