Christmas
This year I had the strangest Christmas ever. First off on Friday, our flight to Atlanta was delayed until 3 hours later so that made us miss out flight to Salt Lake City. The next flight wasn't until Sunday morning because all of the other flights were booked. We slept at the Atlanta airport in the main terminal. It was terrible...My brother and I shared two chairs (we crossed chairs) and I got like 2 hours of sleep because I fell asleep at 1:30 AM Saturday (Christmas) to about 3:30 AM because of these same repetitive announcements that went off every 15 minutes and there were two clowns sitting near us. We spent our Christmas on the Standby List for all of the flights that day. No Santa, no presents, not much of a Christmas at all for us. That day, we found out the flight on Sunday was booked! We ended up spending the night at the Country Inn. Oh and, we had no luggage cuz it was already on its way to SLC without us. So we had no changes of clothes and, but the airport people gave us these kits with toothbrush and toothpaste (I had no clue how to open the toothpaste so I squeezed it and it exploded on my only shirt. We woke up early to get a flight to the Orlando airport. Mighty nice airport! I wish we could've slept there. They had a Hyatt there! We bought presents for our cousins. Not wrapped and a little late. My dad gave me a Stitch hat and my brother gave me a Weezel Ball (this cool weasel thing that attacks this ball on a battery-powered motor). We spent about 8-9 hours there (hey, it was a nice airport!) and went on our flight to SLC. We saw Catwoman (very weird movie) and some show that showed like these houses built in jungles and caves. When we got there, out uncle Steve and my aunt's father, who worked at the airport, located our baggage for us so we went to their house. When I thought it would get worse, it didn't. In fact we had a great time with my aunt, uncle and four cousins (one who was born on the exact day as me, but he was way taller lol. He had a Gamecube and a DS and his brother had an XBox. w00t! We played Halo, Halo 2, Goblin Commander, Tony Hawk, James Bond on Gamecube, Super Mario DS on DS of course. They also had two really friendly daschunds (or however the hell you spell it). Our flight home was real smooth and we saw Shark Tale. We flew straight to Philly airport and we drove home. When we got there yesterday, I gave my brother his two presents I forgot to bring on the trip. The Polar Express Soundtrack and A Walk to Remember Soundtrack (both two of my favorite movies with really cool music). I slept well that night, had to catch up on the Anime Network though. This morning we went to see Mom to put flowers in the vase on her grave. So that's pretty much how it was to now. I'll post more later, Cya.
