wedding weekend
Oct. 4th, 2014 01:02 amWe packed on Wednesday night, do the most part. Thursday I worked in the morning and rushed out at 1:00. We left home at 2:40 for a 5:45 flight. Stopped by the optometrist to have my glasses adjusted.
Cyn got to go through the TSA Pre line, so skipped most of the searches. I didn't, so she still had to wait for me to put my shoes back on. Our flight left a little late but they always build in some padding, and we arrived in Baltimore on time. We only had an hour between flights so I was a little nervous when we had to wait a good ten minutes for a gate. It turned out our next flight was delayed 45 minutes. And again after pulled away from the gate. And again. An then we waited in line to take off. Lots of flights departing Baltimore at 11pm.
We arrived on Long Island, called the hotel for the shuttle and got checked in. Got to bed around 1:30, but neither of us slept well.
Today we got up, went to breakfast. Sat around all morning. Walked down the road to a deli and got sandwiches for lunch. Sat around all afternoon. So so so booooring. Finally made contact with the kids. Hung out with Heather & Greg and Mike for a bit. Then went back to the room for a couple more hours.
We're here on Long Island for Mike's and Jill's wedding. Mike is Cyn's son, and Heather is her daughter. Tonight was the rehearsal dinner (which we paid for). There was no rehearsal, just dinner. Twenty people. It was a good time. Good food too. First, bread. Then salads, then antipasta, then pasta. Then the main course, followed by dessert. Four hours later and I can't sleep because I'm still full of food.
