Leaving on a jet plane…
As you’ve probably guessed from the title, I recently embarked on an aerial journey. This would probably not be overly notable for most people, but it was definitely my first trip on a plane. Even better, I was coming home to visit my family for Easter! I’m really close with my family, and so going the past six weeks without seeing them has been rough, even though I wouldn’t trade the experience for the world.My parents were absolutely positive that I had to be scared out of my mind about flying, but the fact that I was going to be 3 miles above the earth going over 500 mph didn’t cause me to bat an eye. The only thing that had me nervous was the fact that I had a connecting flight, and I was convinced I was going to miss it. And I did, but for reasons beyond my control.
You see, there were apparently some computer glitches with my plane. Which translated into me sitting on the plane at the gate in DC until I was already supposed to be in Detroit. Although I did have an hour layover in Detroit, I definitely touched down 20 minutes after my connecting flight to Flint had left. Luckily for me, I wasn’t stranded in Detroit until the next flight took off 3 hours later as my parents just drove to Metro to pick me up instead of Bishop.
Now I’m looking forward to a weekend of relaxing with my family, watching my younger cousins hunt for Easter eggs, and just soaking up a bit of home time. Yay for spring break!
