We had all day to get to Alicante, our flight wasnt til 11pm, and its only an hour away.
Well if that had been true we would ave had no problems. However the flight was actulay at 10:35 and th drive was closer to 2 hours.
It was a very stressful 2 hour drive at at least 30 Km above the Speed limit most of the way.
We got to the airport and left our car...who knows wear cause we were in such a hurry! (Actuay Dan noted space 518- thank goodness)
Ran into an airport weve never been to before didnt know where the departures were. (30 min left..) found departures... could find Aer lingus ( 25 min left) found Aer Lingus... no one manning the desk since check in already closed. talked to a lady at another airline she said just go through security and check it at the gate...ok (20 minutes left)
through security. Tossed out my shampoo and conditioner was going for my perfume and face wash when she looked at our desperate situation and took illegal pitty on us, and sent us on our way. (15 minutes left) Where is our gate???? Running literaly 6 fat American Strodes RUNNING through the airport like crazy people! Found it, got to the gate! (10 minutes till the plane is suposed to leave) there was still a line and no one was boarding. The irish gentelman infornt of me let me know it was raining and Dubin so there might be a bit of a delay ( I vow at this moment to not complain about it raining on my vacation because if it didnt I wouldnt be on vacation!)
So we never checked in so we have to do it at the gate, they pull us aside as everyone loads the plane...IS it going to happen? We are SOOOOOO close,
whewwww! Yes they let us on, go hurry!
Strodes running again down the gangplank, this time yelling "AHAHAHHAHAHAHHAHH!' no joke they were running and yelling!
We got on, in our seats, sweat covered and tiered as all get out!
then....zonked!
Wouldnt be us with out an adventure~
