You know it isn't good when...

**this picture taken BEFORE we knew of our delay, just had to add some
cuteness. Darcy was REALLY excited about flying for the first time!**
...you board your flight an hour and ten minutes AFTER it was to have
taken off and then after everyone is buckled in an announcement comes
on (in a foreign tongue) and while you don't know what it said, you
guess a lot when you hear frustrated sighs and groans from 90% of the
other passengers. AND then they start serving the in-flight meal
while you are sitting on the tarmac.
Let's just say that it was a long evening ~ a REALLY LONG evening ~
that ran into the wee hours of the morning. We'll leave it at that.
However we are now back on familiar turf in what has to be the
"swankiest hotel" I've ever stayed in. More soon.
