Has basically consisted mostly of the airport.
When Josh and I decided to fly this year to Sacramento instead of drive [like the rest of his southern California family, and like we always do], we were relieved that we were able to spend some extra time at home finishing up some loose ends in our busy lives before Christmas and NOT drive for 8 hours! The 58 minute flight was about the same for us cost-wise as driving our Yukon up there in gas. So, we took a chance.
The flight up was great. Our week away was soo needed, and great! But today… ugh. Our flight out of Sacramento was 20 minutes late to board/take off. Not too terrible. The hour that it took to reach Long Beach was easy and quick [not too turbulent] and we landed safe and smooth at 12:30pm. When 2pm hit and we were still waiting for our luggage… we started worrying.
Now, I know that this ISN’T the most terrible of flying experiences… but for a dang HOUR flight, I expect my luggage to arrive safe, swift, and with everyone else’s that flew with me!!! We left the airport around 2:30 pm, after being there a solid 2 hours and having to complain and write up a report for half an hour after that. Of course, then, out of the blue… 4 bags show up on a cart. 2 of them are ours. We are safe. I was already worried about my wedding tomorrow and having my hair and makeup products packed in my suitcase and trying to replace that in a night so I can function tomorrow.
Needless to say, it was a long and frustrating day. And the hub and I GREATLY thank our friend Chase for circling at Long Beach for 2 hours waiting for us!!! Here’s a pic for kicks from the new cam:
And one of the Josh from Sacramento:
Now we’re in the 24-hour countdown to Christi and Daniel and I am nothing less than THRILLED! Tomorrow is going to be a long and amazingly beautiful day!
