Christmas Day

After a nice Christmas Eve with Rita's family (Rita got a lot of nice presents but we didn't get any, of course no one ate Ginette so that was a good thing) and a nice quiet Christmas morning, we had a loooooong afternoon and evening!

Our flight was supposed to leave at 7:21 pm, then it was delayed because a computer had to be rebooted,

then the plane had to be de-iced, then another mechanical problem,

then the flight crew was running out of time and had to be changed,

then another crew was canceled, then the flight was canceled,

then we were sent to the next flight that had a stop over in Lansing,

then Rita changed to another flight that was non-stop (everyone else was later sent to that flight also),

then finally we got into Madison, WI at 11:20 pm (12:20pm Detroit time) and our luggage arrived at 12:15 am,

then, of course, the car rental offices closed at 9pm on Christmas Day,

so then we had to get a taxi (the shuttles had stopped running at 10pm) to a hotel (Comfort Inn) and

then it was 12:45am!

We got to bed by 1:30am and up at 6:30am to take the shuttle back to the airport to pick up the rental car. Finally got to the Super 8 in Columbus, WI a few minutes to 9am

Lot's of snow here in Wisconsin.

More later.
