As it turned out Delta Airlines (the airline we are flying) was the only airline not flying in or out of Roatan today, so we’re stuck here [Roatan] for one more day.

At least they decided to fly in an additional, and bigger, aircraft tomorrow morning to relieve the situation, and fly everyone out of here. 

Unfortunately they didn’t give Edie and me, and one other in our group of 8, our business class tickets for the Atlanta to LA leg, despite having paid for them. Everyone else in our group got their business class tickets, but for some reason Delta decided the two sickest people on the airplane didn’t need theirs. Go figure.

Anyways, I complained, and of course played the sympathy card, and I think I remedied the situation. At least I’m hoping that’s the case.

I didn’t get a 100% written confirmation, but the Delta customer rep (Jenna) assured me it was fixed. I’ll know tomorrow for sure when we check in. I’m not sure what I’ll do if it isn’t fixed. :(

So in the mean time here I sit in our room drinking a cup of green tea, posting to my blog, and surfing the internet. Fortunately we still have our luggage, and they haven’t cut off my internet connection yet, but I am almost out of green tea.

Here it is our last day on Roatan, and tropical storm Alex is bearing down on us. 

It’s raining, the wind is blowing at a brisk clip, and the seas are a liitle rough, even in the normally tranquil lagoon, and we’ve just been informed our flight to Atlanta has been canceled.

Our only hope for now is the Continental flight doesn’t make it in this morning, so we’ll at least have a place to stay tonight.

Oh well, such is life.
