Day 8 (Saturday) Fly Home
We woke up and left our hotel 3 hours early to catch our plane. We knew it would take an hour and a half to drive there, but we thought we would have plenty of time. Well, we hit a lot of traffic and were at a stand still for a long time, needless to say we missed our flight by 3 minutes. Can you believe it! We got to the check-in counter at the airport and she said, We closed boarding 3 minutes ago (the plane was not scheduled to leave for another 35-40 minutes or so). So, we had to take a $70.00 shuttle ride to the LAX airport and fly out 4 hours later. We flew into SLC (thanks Melissa and Chris for picking us up) and had to drive home in order to make it to church and early meetings the next day.
We got in at 2:30 am
WHAT A LONG DAY OF TRAVEL!!!
