These pictures were the aftermath of the Mon and Tues rains. We drove to the airport in heavy down pours and arrived to find all flights grounded due to the weather. Our 5 pm flight finally left at 9:30 pm. We land in Chicago 20 mins after our flight to Copenhagen departed!
Atlanta assured us we will have accommodations and meal tickets since we are an international flight but upon arrival in Chicago we are told different.
After firm insistence on our part we received our hotel and meal tickets; survived a long wait for the hotel bus and finally checked in at 1 am! A too short 12 hours later we are sitting at Chicago O'Hare Airport for our 10 pm flight, 9 hours in the future.
Finally we board a fully packed flight with 8 more hours ahead of us til arrival in Copenhagen. With dinner and breakfast served the flight goes rather quickly altho no sleeping as the seats are unbearable! We arrived with just enough time to board the bus from the airport to the ship.
Golden rule: Leave early to not miss ship for cases like this even tho we missed our extra day to explore this city!
