The flight was completely uneventful and we arrived in Salt Lake City on schedule. Our whirlwind trip to Kentucky for the twins’ baptism was coming quickly to an end. Before we went to the Cincinnati airport this morning, Nina and I talked about whether or not the flight would be empty. I told her that I thought it would be a very sparsely populated airplane. Boy was I wrong! The cabin configuration was 2-3-2 (a-b c-d-e f-g where a and g are window seats, b, c, e, and f are aisle seats, and d is the middle seat) and all of the window and aisle seats were occupied. Most of the middle seats were occupied as well. Fortunately, the seat between Nina and me was empty — she was in 12C and I was in 12E. The Cincinnati airport was very busy, even at 7 a.m. on a Sunday morning. The wait for a McDonalds breakfast was about 20 minutes. That was my only choice since the hotel breakfast didn’t start serving until 7 (or 7:30 for room service).
When we arrived in Salt Lake City at about 10:15 MDT, to our surprise the terminal was very busy! People were everywhere and there were lines in the restrooms. Where is everyone going on a Sunday morning??? Why is Delta in such difficult financial circumstances?? Inquiring minds want to know!
We drove to Heather’s to pick up Bradica (the dog) and stayed for dinner. Crock pots are wonderful inventions. Daryl drove down from Salt Lake for dinner as well. We had a great dinner, great conversation, and then loaded up the dog and drove home to our apartment in Pocatello. The trip was finished, and so were we. It’s been a very quiet evening! It was a great trip, but it’s good to be home again.
