bad luck

So we got my mom and Justina to drive us to Grand Forks to the airport. It hasn't snowed in maybe a month. But of course, it starts to snow. Oh well thats all right it is just a few flakes. But as soon as we get there the snow starts to fall faster and faster and mom and Justina decide to high tail it home. They made it without to much trouble but it was to bad that we couldn't have supper with them. But thank you. Then we thought we would go for supper to red lobster for supper ourselves. Well the taxi was supposed to take 1 1/2 hrs. What to do? We have no jackets and it's snowing out. So luckily there was a Boston Pizza right behind the hotel so we ran over in our runners and summer jackets. Well that was kind of fun. We got back afterwards and jumped into bed. Then the next morning we got up at 3 am and quickly got dressed because the taxi was to arrive at 3:15. When we got into the entrance the guy at the front desk said that the 5 am flight was cancelled because of the snow. Well we spent the next hr. on the phone with the airport(who changed our flights to the next day) and with insurance to find out what we needed to do. Well I guess we'll start over the next day. Back to bed.
Then in the morning we decided to make this the start of our vacation and we went shopping (we couldn't buy anything because we didn't have room) then we went to a movie. We then went for lunch again at Boston Pizza and then for supper at Red Lobster. Insurance paid for our food all day so we all had crab and lobster and Steak!!
The next day we again woke at 3 am and had a ride from hell to the airport. Then when we had the luck of getting to be the ones on the flight that were chosen to have our bags totally searched and also we were all patted down before we could go through security. Then when we arrived in Minn. we ran through the airport because we only had 1 hr. to catch our connection to the next destination(which I can't even remember right now). When we ran for 15 min. straight we finally got to the gate and we found out that the flight was delayed 1 hr. which meant we would miss our next flight after that.Now what???
Well they put us on a different airline and we sat around Minn. for 5 hrs. waiting for the flight to Atlanta Georgia. Well now instead of arriving in Costa Rica at 2:30 pm we arrived at 9:45pm. Then our luck changed and we met a couple from Denmark and we sat around with them in the evening and this morning we went to see a volcano with them in their rented car. Then we came back and are about to have supper.Tomorrow we will go to the YWAM base and spend a few days there before we go and work with the Capenray Bible school at their kids camp.
Well the weather is great and the people we are meeting are wonderfull. After a bad start I think thing are looking up!
