Traveling Adventure

Wow, what a weekend!

Friday morning at 8:00 Misti and I left our house and headed to the Philadelphia Airport. We found out ahead of time that our flight was going to be delayed a little so we took our time getting to the airport. Once we were there we waited a while and then headed to Atlanta. The plan was to fly from Atlanta to Savannah, Georgia and be there by 3:30 that afternoon....at least that was the plan.

After landing in Atlanta we noticed on the board that they had cancelled our flight to Savannah. After waiting in line forever to find out what was going on they told us that they had moved our original 2:00 flight to 4:00 then cancelled the flight. They said we could get on the 7:00 flight, but that was over-sold, so we could could fly out the next morning. Well, I was suppose to be at a 5th Quarter by 10:00 that night, so we had to rent a car and drive.

After reserving a car at the gate we walked to go get the car and to get our luggage. The line for Hertz, which is who the airlined recommended was super long, so I called them and cancelled my reservation and went to Alamo, since there was no line. After getting signed up for the car we waited for about an hour and a half for our luggage. On the bus to get the car I overheard a man say that he had tried to get a car with Hertz, but they were all out of cars. (Glad I cancelled and went with another rental company).

Finally at 4:30 we were leaving the airport with our rental car. The drive was suppose to take 4 hours, but due to all the rain and it being Friday and rush hour it took us 5 hours and I got to our hotel at 9:30 took a quick shower and go to the 5th Quarter at 10:05. What a day....Good thing....ONE KID GOT SAVED~! Makes it all worth it.
