But we decided on a beer since we still have an hour before  boarding.  Irish pub in DFW Terminal D.

Up at 4 AM this morning to catch the shuttle to the Philly airport.  Quick ride and easy check in.  Passed without trouble through Security.  On time departure and early arrival in Dallas.

Originally supposed to depart at 10:50 AM  local time.  Due to a maintenance problem they took the plan we were supposed to board out of service.  They had to find another plane–one inbound from Frankfurt

Now we have a 2 PM departure!

Tomorrow is “H” day when we depart for Hawaii via USAirways to Dallas.  Then on to Maui for two weeks and the Big Island for one.
