Feb 04, 2008 08:44 AM

well some of you may remember my posts about goin to the bahamas....welllllll it didn`t turn out to be the trip we all planned for.....to make a very very long story short we left friday got to miami and american airlines lost a bag.....6 hours later in the airport they still didn`t know where is was. yes i said 6 hours waiting in baggage claim! we had to leave at this point or we would have missed the cruise ship. we get there to find out while being checked in that the law changed the day before we got there...that they do not accept hospital issued birth certificates any longer amd we had one in our party of 6. we all could have gone but FH`s dad. now keep in mind it`s his 3 sons his wife and i. he paid for this whole vacation for us......we couldn`t just leave him it wouldn`t be right!! so we all decided to say screw it!! BUT they didn`t know if they would get our luggage off the boat!!!! so now not only would we be missing one bag we would be missing alll 6!! we eventually did get our bags and got escorted out of the building (we weren`t too quiet about this situation) we find a ride to the airport switch our flight home from monday afternoon to sunday afternoon find a hotel and a rent a car and spent 2 nights in miami went down to south beach and had an awesome time jet skis and sunning and shopping we get up our final day go to the airport to see the line for security and start to think we are never going to make our plane home.....to finally get thru and find out we have been delayed over an hour......and then delayed a nother hour after that!! so our bahamas trip was mostly lived out like t he movie terminal! Ohhhh amd the best part is.......there will be no refund from the cruise line because they claim that thay can change the law whenever they want with no notice to u. this happened to 3 other people just while we were in the builiding....i`m sure a lot more all day!! Well i guess that wasn`t a long story short but if i told you all the stuff that went down to us all day every day you would be here for a week trying to read this!
