Oh Houston...

I only had an hour and twenty minute layover in Huston which I was excited about, just enough time to get some food, read a little bit, and be ready for the plane again. I was also hoping to meet some of the girls who were flying into Torreon. I knew that there would be five of us, but I did not know what any of them looked like. About 30 minutes before we were supposed to board I saw a girl named Emily who I met at the UNI job fair where we got this job! Her and I found a seat and were talking just waiting, by this time we knew that our flight was delayed about 40 minutes. About 20 minutes into talking we hear this girl say that the flight has changed gates and been moved up, she looked kind of like a teacher and we were hesitant and so we decided to check the monitor and sure enough that was the flight to Torreon. So they moved the flight to a gate that was on another long hallway plus they moved the time up 25 minutes. After we got downstairs (we carried our 40 pound carry-ons down the steps because the escalator was broken) they continued to delay our flight because the plane wasn’t in or the crew was missing . By this time all 5 of us are talking and getting to know one another which was nice. Three of them graduated from Luther College in Iowa but are all from the Minneapolis area, another is from Green Bay Wisconsin.
