Australia March 2014: Day 1, attempt at travel

March 7, 2014 

Flight was set to leave at 2:25PM.  At 2:10PM there was an announcement that the flight would be delayed 40 minutes due to maintenance.

Our layover in ATL was set to be 45 minutes.  This delay was going to cause us to miss our next flight and not get to LAX for our flight to AUS.  Since D and I had some adult beverages with a side of happy pills we were frustrated but okay.  Maury at the Delta counter helped us and got us on a whole new set of flights for Saturday.  The worst part of this is that we will now be arriving in AUS on Monday at 7:50AM - Doug’s first meeting is at 9AM.  

So on we went with our adventure.

We ended up having a fabulous night.  We got massages, ate at a new Italian restaurant on DI, LIDI, followed by dessert at Whitney’s (aka Sermet’s).  

It was also good for me.  Travis (who is staying at the condo and keeping Peaches) ended up spending the night at the condo with us.  This calmed my nerves, as he was able to watch Peaches interact with us, in her own environment.

Breakfast - I forgot my english muffin at home, had breakfast club at work which was pigs in a blanket and OJ.
Lunch - D and I split a club sandwich and had beers at the CHS airport
Dinner - J: linguini and clams in a white wine sauce, D: little steak and fries at LIDI
Dessert - Dolce de leche and chocolate ganache cheesecake at Sermets
