Norm dropped Fredda, Nick and ourselves at Vancouver airport at 9:30 am on Sunday, where we found that our flight to Minneapolis was delayed and we would miss our connection to Ft.Lauderdale.
No problem, Delta gave us hotel and meal vouchers and booked us on a 7:30 am flight on Monday to Ft. Lauderdale.
Minneapolis airport was a zoo with some people having been trapped there for three days, and it was sooo cold! And here is me without a coat. No issues getting to the Ramada, a quick dinner and then a short night's sleep.
This morning we were up at 4:45 am to find that our flight was delayed an hour and the window of opportunity to catch the cruise narrowing by the minute.
We finally left Minneapolis's -25 F temperatures at 9:00 am and arrived in Ft.Lauderdale's 77 F at 1:30 pm. A temperature difference of 104 degrees!
No issues getting to the dock and no line to get on the ship, all with at least an hour to spare. So we are now ready to go eat and hopefully sleep.
Stay tuned and I will try and post again from Sint Maarten.
So, it can only get better from now on....
