Touchdown to trouble

Well, we FINALLY made it to Sask. yesterday after no amount of trouble once we landed in Calgary.  We landed in a snowstorm and then headed off to customs and breezed on through, and made it to our gate.  Ok, all is going well, they put us all on the plane and we sit there for awhile and finally the capitan comes on and tells us we are waiting on a break in the snow so we’ll have to deplane and take all our carry on baggage w/ us…it’ll be about an hour.  So…twenty minutes later we are reboarding, and since it is a small airplane they asked us if we had the rolling carryon’s to store them on the walkway before we got on the plane and the ground crew would put it under the plane for us.  So we wait…and wait…and wait…I guess the ground crew had to make it back around the entire Calgary airport before they could come and stow our few things.  Two hours and thirty minutes later, we are off on our 45 minute flight.  Grrr….anyway, then we had a two hour drive on to Dylan and Janaya’s and the snow storm had pretty much caught up to us by then.  Don’t even tell me how beautiful it is at home…I don’t wanna hear it! ;-)

  4. I got sun burnt today! By the time you return it should turn into a nice tan! HAHA but I MISS YOU!!!

  5. Enjoy your time there and snow is beautiful – if you don’t have to be out in it!

  6. Ugh. It was so hot last night I could hardly sleep. I considered breaking the “no a/c till June” rule. I would love to be up there in the snow!

  7. I broke the rule yesterday! I was so mad at myself!

  8. Perhaps you brought along the sunshine to melt all our snow away… after all, it is almost May and it is quite ridiculous that we received this dump… however… welcome to Canada :) Coming by Edmonton, per chance????

    Hope you have a great time up North and down South in SK.

    Miss you guys! I don’t think we’ve met Peyton yet… too long girl :)

  12. I once knew a blogger named Julie
    her posts, oh they often amused me
    but one day she quit
    and left readers in fits
    a blogger I think she did fool me.
