Well We're Off

It was an exciting start to the trip. Our flight from Philly, scheduled to depart about 10:00 pm was first delayed and then cancelled. We were able, with our group of 11, to switch to an earlier flight to Heathrow so that we wouldn't miss our connecting flight to Entebbe. That flight only takes place 3 times a week so missing it would be a big deal.

As we were waiting to see if we could get on the earlier flight I started imagining what we would do if we couldn't all get on the flight. Who was the most expendable and could arrive late? Probably me. So I pictured myself riding a motorcycle across Uganda trying to catch up to the team. Overlook the fact that I would have 2 checked bags and a back pack to transport - that's what daydreams are for.

We are currently sitting at Heathrow waiting for our connecting flight. I was able to get a much anticipated Americano at the Starbucks here.
