we made it.
we arrived in naples some time this morning. my sense of time is really off. the car was taken to the shipping place early thursday morning. we got to the airport around noon in order to return the rental and take care of the dog. we got on our first plane a little late due to some delays with previous planes. and then our delays seemed to sort of snowball...our first plane from norfolk, va to washington dc couldnt take off due to thunderstorms. we made it to washington dulles airport with about 20 minutes to get to our next flight. we then booked it to the next gate to be rushed on board only to sit on the packed plane for nearly two hours because of the weather in new york. the flight from dc to munich was 7 1/2 hours...plus the two hours of sitting on the runway. we arrived in germany about 845am and had to get boarding passes for the next flight that was supposed to leave at 920. we made it as they were calling for us over the intercom. the flight to naples was about an hour long. we arrived and found our way to the baggage claim and waited. and waited. and waited until there were three stray bags...none of which were ours. we had a total of seven which includes june bug. who did make it safe and sound. so our sponsor met us at the exit and we gave the airline the info for our bags. we checked sean in at the base. and then to the support site to get checked into our temporary place. they didnt have a pet friendly room available so our sponsor took june bug to stay with him until we get a pet friendly place to stay. tomorrow we will go out and do some exploring. ill be sure to post pictures...
