Safe Adventures

A funny thing happened on the way to the forum -- that is something not so funny happened on the way to Warsaw. We couldn't fly into Chicago today and so lost our flight to Warsaw. Probably however the flight to Warsaw didn't go either, but our plans all fell apart. The video below shows what Chicago looked like this afternoon. After seeing this I agree I wouldn't have wanted to be in plane. The Chicago Tribune newspaper page says that 270,000 people in the Chicago area are without electricity. So I titled this safe, because we are back home in my apartment, and luckier than many of those in transit who found there wasn't a hotel room within 30 miles. At least we can sleep in a bed and then start over again tomorrow evening.(Sorry, the video has been disabled apparently by the Chicago Tribune site.) It did look terrible.
  

We have re-booked on Icelandic Air and will be going to Iceland, the Copenhagen and finally Warsaw. Hope we make it this time!
