Long Trip

After fourteen hours, I am back home. I got to the airport at 10am for a 12pm boarding time. The flight was delayed until 2:30 pm, then 3:45, then 7:50, then 8:14 and finally 7:29. There were an array of excuses: air traffic control, weather, crew etc. After 5 hours, we were given a bag of chips and water to quiet us down. It felt like I would never leave the airport, like Tom Hanks in the movie "Terminal".
