Written by Branden Schwartz (Nicole's husband)

We have had a very interesting beginning to our journey, to say the least! After checking our luggage in Atlanta, we boarded our 2:10 flight to New York. After landing at JFK Airport 30 minutes ahead of schedule, we sat in our plane on the tarmac, unable to enter the terminal, for more than 2 hours due to weather and air traffic control issues. Needless to say, we did not make our 6:30 flight to Shannon, Ireland. When we finally were allowed to deplane at JFK, we rounded up our luggage and headed for Terminal 4 to catch the 9:45 p.m. flight that Aer Lingus had now put us on. We boarded right on time only to sit on the tarmac for another 3 hours before taking off! We were now flying to Dublin to connect to a flight to Shannon, but as luck would have it, we ended up missing our connecting flight to Shannon due to the delays at JFK.

Smile! The girls retrieve their luggage at JFK in New York.
