Spring Break 2012 Day One Detroit Metro

Workout Today: 2 miles (11:30 avg) Like starting over after 9 days off....

Detroit Metro to  Orlando Florida:

Our Spring break planning started a year ago when we were able to find a time share week to use in April.  We were going to drive, but were able to score some reasonable seats during the summertime government issues last July.  Our flight was to take off at 5pm on Monday April 2.

So happy to be going to Florida!!!

Yes, That was Delta airlines that we flew. 

Last picture before the dreaded delat announcement.  I look so relaxed and happy!!!!!
 At around 4:15pm, the announcement came that our flight had been changed and was now delayed until 9pm.  The smiling faces of myself and husband were replaced by the faces of people thinking "It's going to be a long night".

The Kids????  Well they just took the wait in stride, and played on the moving sidewalk for hours on end.  I felt sorry for the families with small children and babies.....

Back and forth.....

For hours on end.....

They never stopped.....
Finally we boarded the plane and took off at 9pm. The pilot did his best in getting us there quickly.  The descent into Orlando killed our ears he went so fast, but we landed at 11:30.
#3 wanted the window

#1 and #2 were big shots riding together.
The Pilot hauled it down to Orlando, getting us there at 11:30pm.  We ran to the rental car pick up which was to close at Midnight.  Phew.... We made it and hopped into our rental car.  Then we drove to our timeshare and were in bed by 1am.

Tomorrow: The Magic Kingdom, 90+ degrees, and a killer wait for Space Mountain.
