Day 1, Take 1

Today was full of both joy and sorrow. Jordan and Maria thought they'd be saying goodbye to Baltimore today, but due to the extreme ineptitude of a certain airline, they not only get to stay another night but also got a glimpse of DC!

We said our goodbyes at Park right after school let out, and headed to the airport where we found out that our flight had been delayed to tomorrow morning. We really wanted to try to make it to Winnipeg tonight, so the airline offered us spots on a flight out of the DC airport. They paid for taxis to take us there, but then due to another mess-up, we missed that flight. So, it was back to Baltimore to stay one more night here. Tomorrow we'll be up bright and early for our 6:45 AM flight, and hopefully we'll actually leave this time!  

They finally got us tickets, but they were to Edmonton, not Winnipeg. So we waited at the unmanned airline desk while Julie sorted it out. We now have the correct tickets, and also know that some of the baggage scales are slightly off.
