We had a 3:00 am wake-up to begin our trip to Morocco with our friend,Wendy. Our little dog, Penny, was most confused by the early alarm! Off to meet at Wendy’s house. We left Wendy’s at 4:00 am for the airport and were able to breeze through security, arriving at our gate before 6:00 am. Our good luck came to a screeching halt after that! We boarded the plane, pushed off from the gate at 7:05 am on time, then sat on the runway. There was a problem with one of the onboard computers, so back to the gate we went. After an hour of the service techs onboard, we were given the the go-ahead to take off …. 8:30 am!
Tobey and I were booked on a 2 pm flight to Montreal, Wendy was on the 3pm flight. We had to clear customs, take a shuttle bus to another terminal, and dashed to our gate. The airline had rebooked the 2 pm flight people onto another flight, but we made it in time to get on the original flight, so they rebooked us back. Because we had checked bags, they wouldn’t let her fly standby with us, so she arrived an hour later into Montreal.
We are hanging out in the Priority Club Lounge waiting for our overnight flight to Casablanca and the start of our Morocco tour. We are all tired and feeling a little “zombied” and hope that we are able to sleep on the overnight flight. More to come!
