Got up at five to leave Tulsa on a 9:00 flight to Dallas. Dad dropped us off at the airport. We ate a good wrap and chips with salsa from Camille’s. That was the last good airport food we were to see this trip. We spent an uneventful but long time at the Dallas airport. The bus driver from the American terminal to the Continental terminal was really nice. He prophesied that we will have our first child soon. We’ll see how it goes. The agent at the counter was worried about bad weather coming in and keeping our group from making our Houston connection to Amsterdam and wanted us to get everyone on an earlier flight. We had no way of calling the students, so there was nothing we could do. One student did end up on the earlier flight, but the others all came with us on the later one with no difficulty.
The Continental terminal had really bad food. Erik had bad Chinese, and I had bad Burger King. How can you mess up a chicken nugget? We left Dallas for Houston at around 4:30 with all the students in tow. When we arrived at Dallas, our plane’s gate wasn’t free, so we were taxied to another gate and terminal and ended up one gate away from our flight to Amsterdam. Dr. Rust was surprised to see all of us pop up right next to him. He had gathered most of the other group, but one of the students had accidentally flown into Houston Hobby instead of Houston International. She was taking a taxi from one to the other, and we weren’t sure she would make it. But, crisis averted, she wasn’t even the last one to show up. After rounding up the stragglers from the various food courts, we were on our way to Holland.
