Travelogue: Saturday, 1am, SeaTac Airport
As of now, we're stuck in the SeaTac airport (Seattle); our 10:30pm flight was delayed to 1:30am. (And we've been at the airport since 3pm. Due to trouble with my family's van, when we finally got to the airport, we were ridiculously early. My mom didn't want to leave us there all day, but she needed to so that the rest of the family could get back on the road - after she returned the rental vehicle, picked up their repaired van near Portland, and gathered up the rest of the kids on the coast before driving back home to Idaho.) Let's hope our flight gets off soon, but I'm not holding my breath, especially if our last 30 or so hours of car trouble, etc, are any indication of how things are going. I think they're going to bring out another plane from the hanger; they say something's wrong with the boiler control module on ours (whatever the heck a boiler control module is...if it's even a real part; 'sounds suspicious to Hollie and me). In any case, the earliest we'll arrive back in Monroe is 4pm tomorrow afternoon (Saturday). [It actually ended up being a bit after 4 by the time we got there, but we finally made it, which is what counts.] We'll be in need of showers and diapers, too, so keep that in mind if you see us at the airport or in your prayers.
