Blogging from the Strip

I'm in Las Vegas. No part of my plans for this trip included Las Vegas. But it seems that travel for me is never easy. Cuba, anyone?

I got up at 3:45 this morning to meet Bethany and head to the airport. We made it there by 5:20 to check in for our 6:35 flight. That's when we were informed our flight was...cancelled. Yep. Cancelled. Now that wouldn't be so bad, if we didn't have to be in Salt Lake City by 11:30 in order to meet up with the rest of our group and board the charter bus. But instead, we were placed on a 6:55 flight to Las Vegas. The only good thing I have to say about Vegas is free wireless! We're here for two hours before we can catch the next flight to SLC. They tell us we'll arrive in SLC at 12:50. That's more than an hour AFTER the rest of our group leaves the airport to head to Park City. Which means we're stuck.

By the time we reach our final destination at the Canyon Resorts, I'll have been traveling for eight hours. I could have crossed the Atlantic in that time!

And so begins my vacation.
