Lost in Europe

I would like to be able to say that we have arrived in Kiev, safe and sound...but, currently we are sitting in Vienna, waiting for our last connecting flight. The flight out of MSP was delayed because Chicago grounded all their planes yesterday for some weird reason, so we missed our original flight out of Chicago and had to rebook a later flight to Frankfurt. We could have made our original flight from FRA to Kiev, but we sat on the runway in Chicago for over an hour while they deiced the plane, so we also missed that flight. So, when we got to FRA, we had to rebook a flight to Kiev, thru Vienna. The Vienna airport is nice, its more like a mall than an airport. Scott refuses to buy me anything from Swarvoski ;(
I hope everyone reading this realizes that I did not use any swear words at all. It's 4:00pm here and our flight leaves at 5, so that's it for now.

Ouch. Our flights were all messed up when we went to our first appointment. Ended up getting to Kiev a day later than planned. Praying for things to smoothen (is that a word?) out for you and for a good appointment at the SDA.
