Luggage Lost

by Marcie on July 20th, 2008

Hello from Russia! (July 20, 2005)

We have made it…thankfully. We are minus three very important
pieces of luggage and it looks as if we will be for the remainder of
the trip, as Northwest believes they are still in Detroit. UGH!

Our initial flight was canceled out of Detroit and the New York
flight to Moscow was grounded so to get us to Moscow, Delta routed
us to NW to Frankfurt and then to Moscow. Somehow, our luggage never
made that routing.

We are in Ark now and get to go see AJ in about two hours. We have
not had much sleep but we are excited to see him again!

Tomorrow will be a busy day preparing for court and then going
shopping for underwear, clothing, bottles, diapers, etc.

We will keep you all posted…it looks like the rest of the trip
should get better.

Oh yeah…B…we weren’t five minutes from the airport when our
driver got a ticket! Share that one at the office. No one will want
to work with the Pickels next time!
