Eventually, the 27th arrived, and we were on dry land again. We spent the night in Ft. Lauderdale, and went to Cheeburger Cheeburger for dinner.
Finally made it to the airport the next day, figured we were all set to finally get home. Lo and behold, the plane coming into Ft. Lauderdale is delayed, and if we had taken it, we woud have missed our connection in Cinn. and not made it to Syracuse until the day after! AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!
So, instead, we were re-routed through Atlanta, and made it back to Syracuse late on the night of the 29th. And even getting the van was difficult:
29th September, 2004. 12:25 am.
Finally in the van on the way home
So yes, nearly at the end of our saga. And in the typical fashion of this trip, even getting from the Syracuse airport back to the Wyndham to get our van didn’t go as planned. Got to the airport just fine, found our luggage, went out to the shuttle – and it’s full. So Wyndham paid for a cab for us to get back to the hotel.
But hey, the van started, and we’re on the way home.
100 miles left back to Buffalo, both the kids are asleep, and I won’t say anything else until we pull in the driveway for fear of something else happening. :*D
