Ethiopia: Day 12 (1/8/11)

Well, we boarded the plane at 1:00am and at 1:45am were told that there were mechanical problems and that we needed to get off the plane. We ended up sleeping on the ground of the Addis airport and woke up at 5am. They were waiting for the first morning flight to arrive from Dubai and that would take us to London. We finally left at 9am and headed to London. We will miss all our connecting flights and won't get into Denver until Sunday now...


We arrived in London at 2pm (their time/now 7 hours ahead of mst). The walkway to get off was malfunctioning and we exited the back of the plane down stairs. We looked all over the airport for where to get transitioned. Three hours later we found the right place and are now on a Delta flight tomorrow at 2pm going through MN to Denver.We will arrive in Denver around 10:45 pm but we hear there is a snow storm headed to Denver. God help us.


We stayed in a decent hotel overnight. I called Betsy to let her know the news.
