Traveling Misadventures

After leaving ATL, my group embarked on an eight-and-a-half hour adventure. Things were going pretty well until about hour number six. During hour number six, the pilot came over the speaker and announced, "We are safe, but,..." and then proceeded to say that we were going to backtrack an hour and a half to Minneapolis, MN.

So that is where I am right now: Minneapolis, MN at the Mall of America Ramada.

The flight was delayed until tomorrow (or today!) morning until 11:00 AM due to curfews in effect in Tokyo.

After spending two hours trying to find someone that could give us hotel and meal vouchers (without waiting in line with 400+ people), the group made it to the hotel wherein we had food and drinks.

In about seven more hours, we'll try this whole get-to-Tokyo thing again.
