Homeward Bound

The trip home was not as easy as we wanted.  There were storms south of Denver and that was throwing the schedules out.  We boarded the plane to San Francisco two hours late.  Halfway through the flight I asked the attendant if she thought we would make our connecting flight to NZ.  She consulted her device and said we will have 28 minutes to get through the terminal and our flight will know we are delayed.  Okay better than it's already gone.  Actually there were 25 people with connecting flights and we were allowed off first.  I don't run and haven't for many a year but surprise, surprise I can power walk.  We had to get from gate 68 to gate 102.  Thankfully we made it.  They closed the doors after us and we collapsed into our seats.
The forester was waiting for us at Christchurch Airport and was very pleased to see us.
