Our Honeymoon

Technically our honeymoon has begun! We have made it as far as the Sea-Tac Holiday Inn to find out our flight was canceled. We were fortunate to have a hotel room to set up Operation Center for "Operation Brrr: Find a New Flight & escape the cold".


After 2 hours on the phone last night and then 2 hours this morning at 5am, we are currently scheduled to fly out tomorrow at 6am to San Fran for an 8 hour layover, then London for a 6 hour layover and then to Capetown. This will get us in 2 days late but at this point feel very lucky to not be further delayed. it took a plea of "please help us, this is our honeymoon" to get us a flight tomorrow vs 6 days from now, no joke.

Delayed 6 days? This is not going according to plan.



We are home now and measuring our latest snow fall...9 inches!



Wow - Looks beautiful (And our snow covered Holly Tree) ...if only it didn't shut the airport down.

And a quick shout-out to Charlie and the Bishops for the rides to and fro the airport and David and Gena for the middle of the night "please scan and email a copy of marriage license" obstacle. - very much appreciated!
Our newly shoveled , clean driveway. Nothing less than a rather chilly work of art (we're very proud anyway, at least the car won't go sideways down the drive again).

Instead of a safari, how about a Polar Expedition?
