The best laid plans

We arrived in Montreal yesterday on the first leg of our trip to Greenland.  We are still here ...

Because of a weather event in New York, our connecting flight to LaGuardia Airport was cancelled.  Air Canada rebooked us on a flight today but, unfortunately, it arrives too late to allow us to board our cruise.

Enter our intrepid travel agent, Amanda.  After texting her, she spent hours on the phone with Princess and Air Canada trying to make the best of a bad situation.  Our entire trip was in jeopardy. 

With some fancy footwork, Amanda has worked it out.  Tomorrow, Tuesday, we fly to Halifax, and join the cruise when it docks in Halifax on Wednesday. 

And, in the meantime, we are enjoying martinis and smoked meat sandwiches in a number of Montreal airport hotels. 



And for those of you who don't think a travel agent is necessary, well, you're on your own.

Greenland, here we come!
