Christmas Vacation, Part 1

Scott & I were blessed to spend the majority of our Christmas vacation with the O'Neals in Minnesota. We were supposed to fly out last Tuesday night in time to get to Minneapolis to have dinner with the fam. Instead, we ended up not being able to get on our 5:00 flight (we fly standby since Scott's dad works for Delta, so there's always a chance that we won't be able to get on). We were re-routed through Detroit (getting us into Minneapolis at midnight), which meant more time in the airports and on the planes than we were expecting.  All in all, we got there safe & sound...just a little more tired than we expected.

During our waiting time in Detroit, we walked through the colorful light tunnel that connects the terminals (which is super cool, by the way).  As you walk through, the lights change colors and different sounds (and some music) are played.  It was beautiful and very relaxing...I wish we could have waited there for our next flight, instead of having to sit at the gate!
