Simply brilliant! It's not often I laugh out loud at something, but that trip report has made my evening! I'm really looking forward to the next installment.

What a very long and stressful day. Glad you arrived safe.
Had some laugh out loud moments and re-read most of it back to DH.

I was enjoying reading your update I nearly burnt my muffins. At least you made the connection, but it was a long day.

Get busy with Day 3 now!

Ah yes my notes were wrong! It was 2.15pm Florida time, and therefore 7.15pm UK time! Will correct that...

Sorry I shouldn't laugh at your adventures but getting back on the same plane with a few miles walk in between There is no way you could have planned it

Glad you arrived safe and sound after a very long travel day

What a nightmare of a trip. Reminds me of the trip my DD and I made before Christmas when we went to Sacramento. HORRENDOUS.

You still manage to make us all laugh with the way you tell the story. I read several parts of this to DH. Looking forward to more.

It can only happen to you.... I remember Louise's post on fb when you heard of the plight of your Canadian flight and I can 'feel' your tiredness. Great write up of the day...thanks for sharing (said as I wait impatiently for day 3)
