11:00am: Finally get to the front of the line. At this point we have missed our flight.
12:00pm: Board our new flight now to Toronto. Taxi to the runway and then are told that there is a hydraulic leak and need to go back to the gate.
1pm: Still sitting in the plane, waiting to hear if the problem can be fixed.
2pm: Get off the plane and then sit in the terminal while waiting to hear if the flight is cancelled or just taking off later.
4:45pm: Told the flight is cancelled. We then have to go down to baggage claim, get our bags, take a bus to the Air Canada desk and reschedule.
6pm: Rescheduled our flight to 10pm (arriving at 5am, red-eye) and re-check our bags. Call Jon to bring us extra diapers and formula since we will now be spending the night on the plane.
7pm: Told that the 10pm flight is now cancelled and we have to reschedule to tomorrow morning. By now Jon is here and is waiting for us to get our bags AGAIN from baggage claim and go home.
9pm: Bags weren't in the baggage claim and so a worker had to go back and search for them, then unload the real 10pm flight and look there, and then finally found them still at the Air Canada desk!
11pm: Kids are in bed and mom is EXHAUSTED. Corryn then wakes up 4 times throughout the night.
5am: Start all over. But this time our flight go as planned. SHEESH!
It took forever to get here, but it was definitely worth it. Here's the view form our porch and a funny video of Ethan just to wet your palette.
