The joys of travel

Hey, hey, glad to see you're back. Day one of the first leg of this journey, and so far we've just become more intimately acquainted with the airports of Detroit (DTW) and San Francisco (SFO). As we were feet from boarding the plane in Detroit, we heard a technician saying something about a "hydraulics leak". To make a long story short, we were supposed to have but a 5 hour flight to San Francisco followed by a 4 hour layover, then a 12 hour flight to Taipei. Now, thanks to the 4 hour delay in Detroit to fix the plane, we are now also enjoying an extra 7 hour layover in SFO since we (just barely) missed our connecting flight to Taipei. Our new flight now leaves at 130am, SFO time, which by my watch is about 430am Pittsburgh time. The joys of airline travel, they are never ending.
