Our day started with a 2 hour maintenance delay in PHX. We got another plane and headed towards MRY. After a terrifying decent into MRY it was clear we were not going to land. So... off to divert to FAT (yes, Fresno airport code is FAT). Land in FAT, refuel, and get back in the air after 2 hours sitting in the airplane with some very angry fellow passengers. Wheels down, almost to MRY... just kidding! Wheels up and off to divert to SJC. We got off at SJC and sat happily waiting for my darling dad to pick us up. Donuts, starbucks & Pizza for dinner! It was a 'thank god we were not on the airplane' celebration!
Just as we were leaving the gate area... the lady on the loudspeaker says... "Those of you on the PHX-MRY flight who would like to give it another shot landing there tonight... we are going to board in 5 min" Hahahaha! No thank you! So we never made it to Pebble Beach and are instead in Capitola. Not too bad!
Goods news is: I now have practice traveling alone with 2 little ones for over 10 hours! All set for our flight to London next week! I learned a few things: always bring more diapers, food, and clothes than you think you will need :)
