| US Airways PHL to ZAG, Feb. 2, 2011 |
The "Storm of the Century" delayed our flight by a day (because we couldn't get to the Minneapolis airport from Iowa, not because our original flight was cancelled). When we finally boarded the transatlantic leg of our trip, it was into a nearly empty airplane. It was pure luck that the storm skirted around both Minneapolis and Philadelphia, and we didn't have a single flight delay the entire trip. We had a very nice U.S. embassy driver from Zagreb to our apartment in Rijeka, who, as a hobby, goes vulture-watching on a nearby island.
