So...worst flight EVER...! Let's just say I'm glad i concquered the whole flying alone thing in March because if this would have been my very first flight alone...i would have had a panic attack. So here goes my day...
-Wake up at 5:30
-take my microbiology final
-drive to SLC and DROP MYSELF OFF AT THE AIRPORT
-have my flight delayed 40 min
-board the plane
-have my flight delayed an hour
-worst flight ever...turbulance, delayed landing resulting in meaningless circling in the sky and
MOTION SICKNESS...yay me..
-realize that I have missed my connecting flight to CT by 2 hours
-go to baggage and realize MY BAG DIDNT COME IN
-get shuttled to a hotel because I AM STUCK IN MINNESOTA TIL 7:40 tomorrow morning
...as you can see...I am not sitting at a hotel ALONE in a random city I have no connections to. An extra $70 I didn't plan on spending for this trip to Connecticut, a day behind on all the plans, and without any form of luggage until tomorrow at NOON when I fly into Connecticut. HIP HIP HORRAY for the beginning of a FANTASTIC vacation. Best part of it....if I would have flown out 3.5 hours earlier with my mom, I would be in Connecticut AS WE SPEAK...yes, unfortunate. UGH...like I said...worst flight ever. I will forever remember to pack my personal hygiene items and extra clothes in my carry on because I don't want to have to go through this EVER again!! UGH....well i hope the rest of the trip goes MUCH better than this!!! I'm going to bed tho cuz I have a flight to catch in the morning :)

Wow! That doesn't soud fun. Just remember that sometimes things happen for a reason and who knows...maybe you will meet the man of your dreams on the flight tomorrow morning;) I know that doesn't help, but really I believe that things happen for a reason and maybe it was nothing more than an experience to learn from or maybe it was so Ashton could get some alone time with your mom or maybe it was no reason at all. Nonethless, I'm glad you are safe! Don't let this little detour ruin your fun though. Good luck and have a great rest of vacation!
Oh, Shelby! I am so sorry you had to go through that. I know it is hard to look on the bright side when things don't go as planned but you will surely have fun on the rest of your vacation! Have a fun girls weekend and come home safe!!
NO FUN!!! I am so sorry to hear that it went that way. You know...I really think the reason why it all happened is because you needed an extra minute to catch us up on your blog:) Or not, but I think it is a good conclusion !?! Anyway, I hope all is going well now and that you are having the time of your life! I hope all goes better on your ride home and am glad you are safe. Love you!
okay, this sounds exactly like my trip to d.c. when i was a junior. i got stuck in cinncinati overnight with no clothes. i think i did have some make up with me tho. i'm so sorry girl- someday you will laugh about it, but probably not for a while! enjoy the rest of your trip!
