It only took two trips to the airport on Sunday to get my DH off the ground and on his way, but we managed to get him to NH. As you can see he has ended up flying American Airlines again and again things haven't gone as planned...We seem to run into issues with the Pilots showing up for work when we are supposed to fly...but we did eventually get him to where he needed to go.
As you can see...it is really boring waiting for someone else to board a plane...and I was told it is even more boring when you have to wait for it to take off. She was too busy being bored to see Daddy trying to wave on his way to the plane, but she did eventually turn around and see him just before he got to the steps! She really wanted to go with him, but settled for going and getting Tiger Butt, our cat, with me instead...he is staying with us while my DH is doing all of this traveling since he is almost 16 years old and he gets upset if he is left alone for eight to nine hours let alone four to five days at a time!
It was very exciting to see it take off though! We watched it start gaining speed from the Cafe on on side of the airport and ran across to the other side to see it come off the ground! Em was super excited for that part!
...Up, Up and away!...
DH got a window seat but didn't have much of a view...poor thing... at least it wasn't a long flight to Charlotte and then a longer flight to NH. His luck didn't start out too good with his first flight being cancelled, a snafu with the rental car (he even walked to work on Monday morning...SMH) and a snafu with the hotel room, but things have gotten straightened out and he is settling in. He said things are a lot different up there, but he has jumped in and went right to work. From the sounds of things he will get his J-standard certification this Thursday and then he gets to fly home after work! I always miss him during the week, but when we are states apart I miss him even more!
