It's been a wild ride so far...

To begin, let me give you a short summation of our travels yesterday. We boarded the plane in Milwaukee at around 5pm. And this was no ordinary plane, this was a tiny jet with two seats on either side, with hardly any leg room or shoulder room. With all this cramped space Amanda was so lucky to be squished against the window because of the obese woman sitting next to her. This woman not only took up the entire Row 7 seat C, but about a third of Amanda's row 7 seat D...thank goodness it was only a flight from Milwaukee to Chicago.

Once we switched flights in Chicago , we were headed to our destination of Knoxville. Upon landing, we went to gather our luggage. Everyone's luggage was claimed except for Ben's. Turns out it was still in Chicago and United said it would be coming on the 9pm flight and arriving around 11:30pm to our hotel, which it never did. (It was Rhode Island this morning). The coaches each have a rental car: Ben and Andrew with mini-vans/soccer mom cars/ grocery getters, while Beth was lucky to have the Kia Soul, or the hamster mobile (you know the commercial?).http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HQ-CDE_r_wg

Anyway we arrived at our hotel to check in, however things did not go accordingly. The hotel didn't have us arriving until the next day, and there was no way they could accommodate our 15 person group with only 2 open rooms. So they paid for us to stay at the Hilton for the night. Below is a little video to capture the moment. Enjoy!
