Finally Home

That had to of been one of my worst trips ever. I left Fayetteville at 0550 in the morning on the 15th. 1 1/2 later, I arrived to a snow storm in Charlotte. I boarded my plan and 2 hours later, it took off. This made me miss my Detroit connection which, was snowing also. I then spent 4 hours trying to find a flight to Japan. All were booked for 4 days. Finally a supervisor came over and made arrangements for me to fly to San Francisco then to Japan. So I waited another 4 hours for that flight. Once I boarded the plane, we had to get the plane de-iced which took an additional hour. Finally flew to San Fran, slept on the floor at the USO. I arrived at San Fran at 1100 at night and my plane did not leave until 1150 the next morning. So, there I am, stuck at an airport. Finally board my plane the next day and walked to the business class. The 10 hour flight was not that bad when your chair turns into a bed and champagne is being poured into a glass. Once I arrived in main land Japan, I had to bus over to another airport in order to catch my flight. I finally arrived in Okinawa at midnight on the 17th of December. WOW!! I was miserable.

To top it all off, my wife had set up a birthday party for her friend on the same night. So, she was mad at the situation. I was mad at the airline system. It was not starting out at as a great time with each other. Oh sure, we both loved seeing each other but we were not content with the situation we were given.

Now, I am back home. I have spent a little time with the family and am loving it. I am so glad to finally be back. Last night (24 hours of me being home), we decided to go see Harry Potter. So off to the movies we went. As soon as the lights went off and the movies started. I passed out on my wife's shoulder. I woke up at the end. It was pretty funny. I guess I started snoring in the theater. Ha-ha.

Today, I have to go to work to turn in some traveling paperwork but I am on vacation. I am not working until the 8th of January. YEEE HAWW. Well, I will keep you all postdated. I know there are only 3 people who read this blog (including me) so for the other 2, have a merry Christmas.
