Friday: In Which We Fly to Florida

walkitoutWe were originally supposed to fly on Saturday, but they moved our flight really late and I just didn’t want to risk that blowing the beginning of the trip, so I took the free move and switched to today. Unfortunately, we wound up losing our preferred row (did get the Extra Leg Room charge refunded, but somehow the pre-paid bags got lost so I had to repay for those. Oh well! I didn’t get charged for overweight in December, so it mostly evens out). A. had a half day; we took T. out at the same time (at lunch, basically) and we drove in and parked, since we figured (correctly) the garage would not be crazy full on the Friday before February vacation week.
We then had a series of in-plane delays: wait to get a takeoff slot, pilot decided he didn’t have enough fuel, go refuel, return, wait to get another takeoff slot. All told, left an hour and a half late for a 3 hour flight. *sigh*
Fortunately, we had eaten (Wahlburger’s) ahead of time.
Garden Grocer was at bell services before we even got off the ground and no order errors at all this time. I had done a cash reservation (that’s a shocking price!) for the village for the extra night, as borrowing limits continue to apply and I’d used up all of mine plus maxing out the borrow limits. It was set as a continuing and there were no hiccups, which was delightful.
