Flight Delayed

As most of you have already heard, our flight was delayed, and we're stranded in Paris until tomorrow morning.

The airline put us up in a hotel, and gave us vouchers for dinner and breakfast. We are supposed to be back at the airport tomorrow (Monday) morning at 8:00 AM (1:00 AM CST) so that we can attempt to board a flight to Detroit.

While we were waiting at our gate, there was an announcement that said that the airplane engineers were having problems with the hydrolics in the plane and tracked it down to a part that needed to be replaced in the engine. I guess it's good that they're being safe. :)

After we get to Detroit, it's unclear which flight each of us will be on and we will likely not all be together. If I know more and am able to get internet access, I'll post updates as I receive them. Otherwise, we're all going to get some sleep so that we can be ready for a long ride home tomorrow (hopefully).

Hey, look on the bright side. You get more time to relax before heading back to work. We look forward to hearing about all your work in France.
