11/7 Florida Keys tour

We came down to breakfast in the hotel at 7:30, hoping to see people before everyone went their way. We did see almost everybody, but a couple people had left the night before, driving toward home. I was hoping to hang out with Rachel and Katie a little bit, but they were off trying to get ahold of their rental car. Once they managed that, they picked up Dwight, who had dropped his bike at the bike shop to be shipped back. Rachel and Katie left for a moderately long drive to Miami, where they will take the train back to New York City after a bit of a visit. 

 

At around 2 o'clock, I got a message from American Airlines saying our flight would be delayed by an hour. This would most likely result in us missing our second flight, so we took the hotel shuttle to the airport and had them put us on a flight tomorrow morning and discussed arrangements for them giving us a coupon to pay for our hotel tonight. If only I had known… I would've spent some time at the beach or some thing. Bit of a waste of a day, but at least we didn't get stuck in Charlotte, midstream. We got to spend a little time in a Cat Cafe, watching people interact with the cats.

I packed up my Friday, while Dwight rode to the bike shop to drop off his bike.




Erin is OK watching the dog a day longer (note: when we returned to Buffalo, the hotel shuttle took 30 minutes to pick us up, after we just missed it the first time. Def don't try to get a package deal with Buffalo Hotel inc a sleep over the night before and then hold onto our car for a week. Not worth it).
