Snowbound part II... the escape

Against the odds, we made it out to DC on Day 2, on one of just a handful of planes to be allowed to fly out of the UK. It's a blessing we were able to do so, as the entire flight schedule is in chaos -- and we'd probably be stuck there on Eton Avenue through Christmas. The scene at the airport was pretty chaotic, here's a few videos we took that day (over a 6 hour period), strung together.


Now of course it's great to be home. As expected we are exhausted and will probably remain so until Parker gets adjusted and stops waking up at 3am. But such a thrill to see Meme, Pepe, Jessica, Peter, Jasper, Josie and so many others. Also Nadya came down for a two-day visit. Sadie's having a blast. As is Parker, despite his lack of sleep.  Karen & I are pretty beat up... but give us a few days.

  1. OMG. Somehow I missed the extremity of your voyage in your simple retelling once you landed. This is hysterical. So glad you made it!
