It was a wonderful flight of 28 hours with good food and good movies. By the time we reached Chicago, we made friends with atleast 10 people sitting around us :) ...
Adding spice to the journey was:
1) Priti's credit card was stuck in the phone booth. A well built, handsome airport officer helped us remove the card in a jiffy...the entire lounge clapped and "wow"d him.
2) Chicago immigration authorities held back Manasa and Harsha's passport for further inquiry.
3) Because of the above we missed the connecting flight to Minneapolis. Had to skip another flight to manage boarding.
4) On arrival GK's baggage was received at the baggage counter with half the contents of it hanging out of the suitcase. The airport authorities were very sweet to replace the suitcase with a new one.
The BEST part of the journey was when we landed in Minneapolis.
There was a "Namaskara. Chennagideera?" that we heard in chorus by Leif, Tim, Barb and Jean. We checked in to the hotel and now about to hit the sack. Like the saying goes.."All's well that ends well"...goodnight....zzzzz
