It's a Bird, It's a Plane, It's a Bird on a Plane!

When traveling standby, occasionally the unexpected happens. For example, after getting bumped off two flights, we finally got seat assignments to fly to Houston when another airline - two minutes before the cutoff time - sent some customers to Continental and our seats were taken away.

We still had hope and were waiting to see what would happen when we learned that our aircraft had hit a pelican during landing in Salt Lake City. Our plane would not be going anywhere. Seriously?!

This is how Baylie spent her time at the airport.

David and Jalen were able to catch a few z's.

So, we'll be getting up at 5:00 a.m. tomorrow to try again.
