    Perhaps OH's Dad wasn't so wrong. I just posted this on my blog and remembered I said about it here too!

    Sunrise today. And the haze will stay for most of the day like it has every other day since they started flying again.

      DH and I got home yesterday after 4 nights stuck in Los Angeles. It was very frustrating. We had to go to the airport every day to get any imformation as you couldn't get through on the phone. It meant that you couldn't have a day out and enjoy the extra time in LA. When flights were resumed it was unbelievable to have to watch scheduled passengers board a flight for that day while hundreds of us were stranded running up hotel bills which no one except possibly our imsurance company would help us pay for it. Fortunately Air New Zealand provided a rescue flight for us eventually, an empty jumbo jet which took all those needing to get to London. I never thought I'd be pleased to see Heathrow Airport. LOL.

      We count ourselves lucky as this was at the end of an AMAZING trip to Australia and New Zealand. If it had been at the beginning of our holiday it would have ruined our plans. I feel sad for all those whose holidays never got started.

        Glad you're home safe and well Pam. I hear some people are having return flight dates well into May!

        How about those on the brand new Celebrity Eclispe cruise liner being brough home though! Everything on it is so new, it squeaks! Not even had it's inaugural celebrations. I guess they have just won themselves a huge new following of passengers to be!

          Thanks, Amo. I hope some of those folk will get back before May. We arrived in the baggage hall at Heathrow at 6am very tired. I recognised David Taylor the quilter there. I met him at Houston last year so was certain it was him. Was tired and didn't have the nerve to approach him. When I got home I checked his diary and he was obviously en route to France to teach at a quilt show there.
          What a small world we live in.

            So glad you finally got home wish you could have flown to TX for your four day wait to visit us but we were getting ready to leave so it would have been a tight visit. Glad you had a wonderful trip to New Zealand and Australia. Hugs, from Ann and Bob
