Flight FROM HELL... Or not
So we left our house at like 6:00 am England time and we get on the flight finally at like 12:00. Then 6 hours into the flight they said we are having some like engine malfunction and we are going to have to land in Halifax... We then waited on the tarmac in the plane for an hour, and then our pilot who had a great grasp of the English language... NOT... And said we need to disembark. We then waited in line for 15 dollar food vouchers and then waited in the aiport until our flight at 9:45 Halifax time. We are now waiting and will get back at around Midnight toronto time meaning that we have been up for 24 straight hours...
As you can figure we are very tired and stressed and can't wait to jump in our own beds.
Thanks for all your prayers and comments they kept me going....

Hey man, you guys are a bunch of wussies! You call THAT a traumatic experience?!? Check out my blog! I wrote about my FIRST EVER flying experience, and it was far worse than anything you mentioned. And I didn't even fill in all the details! I practically WAS living "The Terminal"
KRAKOSIA!!!!
jk. You guys aren't wussies. Welcome back, too. Oh, and the "Land of the Free" usually refers to the USA, fyi. But welcome back to Canada, you hoser!
We should hang out and swap airport stories.
Peace, Ben
