Any fear I had that I would make my connection is gone! LONG
GONE!
The Sydney Airport is closed on a weather delay. The
problem? That storm that I rode through on the way in (the one that tossed the
commuter jet around on the way down) has developed into a full-blown lightning
storm. I can see why they have closed the airport. The lightning flashes periodically
overpower the fluorescent lighting in the terminal and cast shadows. The rain
is coming down outside in sheets!
I am sitting here in the departure lounge from which my
flight will (may) eventually leave and not only can we not leave while the
airport is closed, the plane carrying our crew cannot land during the storm!
So, there is nothing to do but sit here and wait. But then
again, THIS is the fun of travel, right?
As I said at the beginning of the series of articles for the
week, whoever said that ‘Getting There Is Half The Fun’ really needs to have a
better travel planner! I would like again, to thank my sister for pushing me to
do what I wanted to do anyway and take this amazing side trip and once again, thanks
to the travel planner, Resego at Flight Centre, for booking everything for me!
It was an amazing adventure!
Wherever you are this
morning I hope that you have had an adventure this weekend!
