2nd stop: YYZ





Carissa: (and on behalf of Minh)
Oh the joys of the airline industry.. guess what?!! our flight to LGA was cancelled!! And seeing as our routing was YYZ-LGA bus to JFK-JNB-LUN well we can all see the problem of if we didn't make it to LGA . The fun begins!
Luckily we've got the inside track (well Minh does at least, he was on the phone seconds after the announcement -- I was still shoving free maple leaf lounge food in my mouth) So we'll see where we're going from here!
The pictures are A- last night me trying apparentely very intensely to get the internet to work in the hotel lobby, B- at the airport the next day, me and Jenn being cool and comparing malaria meds, C- Corinne, our oh so helpful AC agent who took our bags off our original flight, got them onto a potential EWR flight, took them off that one when we decided we wouldn't be able to make our connection, all the while being friendly and really trying her best to alleviate our "interesting" situation.
For right now, all is well, we had breakfast in the lounge and are now going for lunch as we await news on where and when and how we are going to Africa.
We haven't even made it out of Canada yet!! (well techinically I guess we are in the States seeing as we went through US customs...)
More to come as our situation develops!
