Back across the pond


September 24, 2012
We said goodbye to Jeff's sister, Vickie, today.

She's off back across the pond to England.

Pearl was sad to see her go. She's had a great time with Aunt Vickie... shopping, getting presents, lunches, and lots of spoiling.

Little did she (and we) know, Aunt Vickie's flight back across the pond wouldn't go quite as planned. After an eight-hour delay because some part on the plane was broken, her flight was canceled all together at 11 p.m. After we'd taken her back to the airport TWICE. And with an international flight, that means she will now have to fly to another state-side airport, wait four hours, fly to Amsterdam (Germany people), wait for five hours, then to England instead of a direct flight to Paris and then London.

I'm glad we didn't take Vickie up on her offer to take Pearl home with her. That would have made her flight(s) the LONGEST ever.
