In memory of a year ago... I finally decided to post my Ireland trip!
There are 4 new posts ENJOY!
So sad story..... The post I did FOREVER ago was deleted about our trip over to Ireland. So here is a quick story about it. We first flew to Chicago from SLC it was about dinner time so of course we got some Chicago dogs! YUM! SuAnn, Tim, (Alex's parents) Gary, Linda, (Alex's grandparents) Alex, Reid and I and our team were there. We got onto our plane and were told that there were some mechanical problems and we would be delayed. An hour later we were still on the plane. Everyone was up and talking using the phones. Reid was watching a movie on his phone and Alex was playing his train game on his phone. I had nothing to do but wait. Then 2 hours later they decided to deplane us. We got back into the airport and we were hungry again considering it was 4 hours since we had eaten. About an hour or more later they decided to let us get on the new plain they "dug up" as they said. Yeah that made us feel good! So when we finally departed it was 4 hours later. We got to Heathrow we were told by United Employees that they had booked us all on another flight to Dublin. After going through all the security checkpoints and dealing with cranky TSA workers (or whatever they are called in London) we got to our gate. Guess what we weren't booked on another flight... we were put on STANDBY on already FULL plain to Dublin. Almost all of us got on the next flight minus SuAnn, Tim, Garry and Linda. When we got to the hotel all the rest of the family was there because they were expecting us over 5 hours earlier. We talked to them about all that happened and then since it was late we decided to go to dinner. It was divine, and then all of us were ready for bed. We missed a lot of time in Ireland due to the delays so we didn't get any time to really enjoy Dublin since we were supposed to do that the day we arrived.
