Wednesday at 5:30pm - travel is settled for the evening

Thanks to the work of our travel agent, we do have a means to get to JFK in time to make the flight to Dakar - but it is going to be tight. We will fly through Atlanta and into LaGuardia, then take the airport shuttle to JFK with about 2-1/2 hours to spare before the overseas flight departs.

The agent expects tomorrow morning to be "chaotic" at O'Hare, so we must get their early to complete a ticketing process which is running late within Delta Airlines due to the large number of rebookings taking place. The weather forecast is for only a couple of inches of snow overnight, but then 6-10 additional inches through Thursday night. It looks like our plane will get out before the worst arrives.

Despite this brush with panic today, spirits remain high and we look forward to joining our friends in Senegal.
