Yesterday we all arrived at the airport at 1:30pm and checked in and found out that our flight was delayed because of thunderstorms and tornado warnings. After many delays we finally got on the airplane at 7:00pm. We went on the tarmac and found out that we were delayed until 8:00. At 8, we found out that we were delayed another hour and ten minutes. By 9:00pm we were still not allowed to take off so we were taken back to the departure gate. Except we went the wrong way and had no doors to go through. A security person finally let us through thinking we were passengers entering Canada from the States.... We weren't and were not allowed to get back onto our flight until we went through security again however security closed at 4:30pm..... After waiting three hours we finally got put in a hotel for the next two nights and re-booked onto a flight for Saturday at 4:40pm..... We also found out that our flight was eventually allowed to leave but only left with 8 people. Thank god we didn't get on that flight though because there were no accommodations in Newark due to no flights coming or going. To make it even worse Amanda's baggage was destroyed.
After all that hassle, we hadn't had anything to eat so my knight in shining armor (John) came and got us and took us to get some food after 12 hours of not eating....Today we slept in and went shopping and anxiously waiting to leave tomorrow so our REAL adventure can begin!
Thought I'd attach a pic of all before we found out we weren't going to Scotland for two more days.....
