Our Flight


If you are interested in our flight story, read on! Warning: It might give you a headache.
  • Our first flight out of Utah was delayed, so we missing our connecting flight at the Newark, NJ airport.
  • The airlines in Newark put us up in a hotel that night.
  • We got to the airport the next day in plenty of time to make our flight. BUT...had trouble locating our checked baggage. THEN...Jacob and I got separated. We finally found each other. Then we had about 10 minutes to get through security and on our flight. We were all running and Ben and Liz were crying.
  • We rushed on the plane just in time and got settled. Then they announced that there was engine trouble with our plane and that we needed to exit the plane and get on another one.
  • We waited for an hour or so at the airport and then loaded onto the new airplane.
  • Once we were on that plane, we had to wait another hour to get a clearance for our take-off.
  • Our flight to Germany was fine, and we picked up our luggage and rental car without any problems. Then we drove four hours to Denmark and got checked into the guest house here in Roskilde.

More of our adventures to come. We miss and love you all!!!

Aiyaiyai. Sounds like a headache. Glad you survived, though I can imagine that you felt like you wouldn't. It's good to hear from you. I've been anxiously watching for an update on your blog!

Yikes! I'm so sorry your flights were delayed and that you and Jacob got separated. Yuck! Hope it wasn't too stressful and you've recovered from it all. Glad you made it safely. I'm looking forward to seeing pictures of your house. Love you! :)
