i woke up early so i could make the first chair…….oh wait, sorry, i was flashing back to Tahoe in April. today i slept in, had my corn flakes and mediocre coffee, and made my way to the slopes for a little viewing.
although i had time to go skiing, i am still in the summer mindset and decided against it. that, and i figured all i needed to do was go skiing in an unfamiliar resort, get lost, and miss my flight all together. besides, it’s not often i get to ride the chair lift down the mountain.
miss my flight? right, that’s funny. my flight today is only 2 hours delayed (so far), so i’m doing well. at least we know why this flight was delayed. it really doesn’t make anything better, but sometimes you just like to know.
the airport in Ushuaia is probably the smallest, prettiest airport i’ve ever been in. and at least i have the view of the mountains to look at while children run and scream behind me. is it really a bad thing to threaten other people’s children?!
yay, the plane has finally arrived, time to get ready for the flight! hopefully those children will be far-far away from 16E.
post flight addition:
when all was said and done the flight left three hours after the original scheduled departure time. the screaming children ended up in front of me by 10 rows or so, but it didn’t matter……. the one kid had a set of lungs on him and was heard throughout the plane. throughout the plane for the entire trip, awesome.
thankfully my luggage made it, my ride was waiting, and now am in sitting in my cozy hotel having a glass of wine. tomorrow’s adventure…..a little 4×4 excursion in the snow!
