Well I am officially here in Texas. The drive took 2 days. Sara, dad and I left at 4 am on Saturday the 22nd, we arrived in Midland, TX at 12am (Texas time). We would have arrived earlier but while we were eating lunch we got a phone call from mom. She said that her and grandma's flight from LAX to Las Vegas was delayed 40 mins. So we they got to Las Vegas they had missed there connecting flight to Dallas because US Airways didn't wait for the connecting flights to arrive. So when they got to Las Vegas they airline told them there were no flights available to Dallas until Tuesday. Unless they made on the next flight that was leaving around 4ish. They didn't get on theat flight it was booked and they were on standby. So earlier in the day when us 3 were eating lunch dad called to make a car reservation for mom and grandma to drive back to LAX if they didn't get on the next flight. Basically dad was on the phone with the airlines trying to get them on the next flight because they almost didn't get their bags pulled and they almost were sent to Dallas a head of time. Which my grandma is on medication. So they tired that angle to get the on the next flight didn't work. Tired calling US Airways customer service they aren't open on the weekends. GREAT CUSTOMER SERVICE. They did get the bags pulled. (All these phone calls took 1 1/2 hours of car traveling time.) Mom and grandma finally got on a plane at midnight flew to Detroit, MI (4 hr trip) and then to Dallas (another 4 hr trip). So they finally got Dallas Sunday morning. We got to Midland at midnight and left around 10 in the morning. We arrived in Allen around 4 pm. That was a long story but it still isn't over...
More tomorrow I'm going to bed...
