Journey back to Tampa!!!!!

May 23rd & 24th - We were back at the airport at 5am to try and get the 6am flight. Unfortunately we did not make that so we were rolled over to the next flight! There was another couple headed to Tampa on a pass and were the same class that we were but I had checked in before them, so we were ahead of them on the list. We had ‘fun’ teasing each other about who would be getting on the plane first!! We kept being rolled over until 6PM when we finally received boarding passes for FIRST CLASS!! And, we got on first!!! We arrived in Houston around 12:30am on Sunday and the next flight to Tampa was at 8am! We figured by the time we found a motel, got there and got into bed we would only get about 3 hours sleep, so we decided to sleep at the airport. We found a corner to make our next for the night. There happened to be an emergency cart with a stretcher that Doug was gentleman enough to let me have and he slept on the floor!!! We actually got a few hours sleep and caught the first flight to Tampa arriving around 10:30am.
