Its offical. I’ve had to cancel my trip. While Ft. Lauderdale wasn’t too badly beat-up from the storm, they are still dealing w/some large power outtages. I think it would be very unwise to fly into the situation. The irony is it will probably clear up within a week but that is beyond my available window. The owner of the hotel called me persnally this morning to apologize for not being able to accommodate me. They don’t expect to have power again until late tomorrow.
The airline still show my trip as “on schedule” however, they just resumed limited operations this morning so I doubt my flight would have left the ground.
Yes, I’m disgusted, yes, I’m upset. However, there are people dealing w/bigger issues right now over there so I am trying to keep things in perspective.
I’m off to the gym to work out some of my disappointment. There is a tiny hope I can reschedule for November but not much.
SORRY……CALL ME AND WILL EAT BON-BONS AND WATCH “TERMS OF ENDEARMENT” ON THE COUCH !!! TO MAKE UP FOR IT.
Moby:
I am SOOO sorry this happened to you! Damn! Well, look at a brightside. That is MORE time you can get an even more AWESOME body to show off in FTL. I wish I was going. Take me with you in your suitcase in November.
I’ve got a friend who was scheduled to leave today for Fort Lauderdale. His hotel got cancelled, but at the last minute he was able to change everything to St. Petersburg. Just a thought….
