April Fools!!!

So after a very busy day of running our (VERY) last minute errands before we leave the country, Jason and I head to the airport a little behind time, a bit more intimidated than expected, and a little more nervous than excited. This big trip is quite the break from our world and reality at home, so I suppose it was natural to feel a bit anxious. Anyhow, we get to the airport a few minutes early despite a late start and what would you know, our flight was canceled. Apparently with the weather and delays, JFK's air traffic control indicated to Delta at some point in the hour prior to our arrival that our plane couldn't fly in. Nice to know. So after about an hour scrambling with Continental and Delta we had two options: leave tonight with three tight connections on oversold flights; or leave tomorrow with one connection to Lisbon on guaranteed business class seats. Yeah, no - we weren't sure what to do when the agent put us on the spot so we flipped for it. The coin flip had determined that we would leave today, three tight connections on oversold flights. But alas, we would be smarter than the coin and decided to leave tomorrow. So it seems like we would spend another night here at the Aksts while we anxiously await, again, the start of our Excellent Adventure. It also seems with this first punch to be rolled that the anxiety has subsided, the intimidation melted away, and now we are both ready and very excited to get our travels started, FINALLY feeling fully relaxed and ready to take on the world - literally!!
