On the road again!

Apparently I only use this blog when we travel, so here goes! We're in Chicago waiting for a flight to Philly. From there, it's off to Venice! We've been up since 3 am & only got am hour & a half of sleep. We can currently be described as grumpy bears! Especially me! But, the lack if sleep has been the only negative so far. We've had great people helping us! We actually got to the airport before the gate agents this morning, but when we finally got helped, the gut was great. He didn't even charge us for our overweight bag! Here, we had a lady help us a couple of times. We switched airlines so we had to get tickets here, & our new one airline, US Airways only has a couple of gates here. Get this, we're in a United terminal & they just don't update the US Airways info on the boards, so it always says the same thing, even when the flight departs from a different gate. Nice!



We talked about having Chicago style hot dogs, but I'm not sure it'll happen. We had breakfast at this nice little mediterranean themed place. It was airport food & it was actually good, but don't kid yourself, we paid through the nose for it. I had a frittata & Chris had a bacon, egg, & cheese filled calzone looking thing. I was totally the winner at that meal! Walking back to our gate, Chris decided a chocolate milkshake would make it a breakfast if champions, so we stopped @ Johnny Rockets. I got a terrible rootbeer float. He was definitely the winner there.



Now I'm trying to relax a little before we board another totally uncomfortable flight. When they're missing the armrests, airport sears are actually comfy!



On the road again!
