Time to kill a 5-hour layover. Why not make a blog post?
Right before take-off to Toronto, a girl hustled on board with a toddler in her arms. Both were wearing tye-dye t-shirts that explained, "Two people fell in love, and then here we were!" Or something like that. Not long after, another child with a matching t-shirt came on. Then another came on. Then another. And then another. And then yet another! The final count? 10 kids. I don't know who they were (besides the next Dugger family) or where they were going, but my prayers are definetly with those two people who fell in love (and all the passengers who get to sit next to their toddlers).
Things are moving pretty slow around gate 73. I just tried a food court poutine (a Canadian delicacy of french fries topped with cheese and gravy). It wasn't as bad as I thought it would be, but not exactly my new favorite international dish.
-For some reason, I can't upload pictures right now. I'm sure you were all dying to see the masterpiece that is poutine. ;) -
While we were sitting around the food court, a woman came up to us and asked if we were going to Colombia. As it turns out, she and her group were headed out there to do their own missions work, evangilizing door to door using rubix cubes. I'm not exactly sure how that's going to work, but it sounds pretty awesome! It was refreshing to cross paths with her!
We've already had one tiny mishap with luggage. We were told that we needed to claim our luggage at Toronto and then re-check it for the Tokyo flight, only to be told (after waiting a half hour by the carosel) that our luggage was already taken to the Tokyo plane. I certainly know worse things have happened, so I definately can't complain too much. Let's just hope this is the last of any luggage confusion :)
With love, from Canada <3
