Excitement… I got a note from Delta that my flight was delayed out of Philadelphia and I would not make my connection. I got on the computer and found an earlier flight which had been delayed since 0900! Hence, a rush to the airport in sort of awful conditions.
Sheets of rain. Still, they are telling us that we are going to leave.
The drive from the conference back to Philly was lovely. Lots of hills and lush green. Great cars, too.
When we got in and cleaned up, it was off to the Union League Club to meet priests for supper. Wonderful time.
That was just to start.
I’ll try to update along the way if my phone will cooperate.
UPDATE
After ANOTHER delay we are on board abd so is my bag. What will happen next is anybody’s guess.
Now there is a fuel truck.
From what i can tell there was a problem with the original plane which is why this flight was originally at 0900.
They keep whittling away at my layover in ATL.
Onboard chess game is not very good.
More later.
UPDATE
AN HOUR LATER AND WE ARE STILL ON THE GROUND IN PHL
Will this trip never end?
Even if we can get on the way shortly. I don’t know about the connection.
