We departed on-time on 8 July at 11 o' clock from Athens Airport and arrived at 15.30 local time in JFK, New York. Our next flight was scheduled for Orlando at 16.25. On JFK's Customs we crushed at a 300 people queue and took us almost an hour till we passed the slow checks. Fingerprints, photographs and stamps to pass by. So, we arrived at gate 6, 2 minutes before scheduled time and would caught the flight if the gate would not have been changed to 29, which was on the other side of the huge airport. We lost our flight! We and 10 members of the greek national team of archery. No COMMENT!
Next step was to contact the DELTA Offices. Due to my talented description of our situation and our elderly father we managed to get the next filight which was at 20.30, A-class!! Bravo to Delta, Bravo to that fat, black girl that helped us! We arrived at 1 o' clock in Orlando, ie 8 o' clock greek time, ie almost 24 hours after we left our home in Athens.
Tasoula and unkle Barney waited us at the airport and brought us to their brand new home with a swimming pool! I am writing you now in front of the palm (and pint) trees of the lovely neighborhood. Now we are heading for the largest Amusement Park in the world: WALT DISNEY WORLD RESORT!!!
Do I seem very american writing all this? If yes, wait to see what will happen in the Pacific Ocean...
