 Hi everyone.  Well today’s goal was to get to Battle Creek, Michigan.   I had a 12:30 pm flight leaving Newark Airport on Northwest Airlines.  I got there around 11:00am and since I had my e ticket and all the information I started heading to the gate and security.  But I got this urge to stop and check the monitors to make sure of the gate and time.  
When I looked it said my flight was cancelled. 

   So I went to one of those electronic check-in kiosks and it verified the flight was cancelled and gave me a new flight.  I did’nt catch it at first, but it was for the next day.  I thought it was  a 7:30 p.m. flight but it actually was the next day a.m. and (get ready 

 )  The flight eventually would have made it to Grand Rapids Michigan at 11:11 a.m.  
 

 Well I went over to the counter were they hide the real people and the Lady was able to get me on an afternoon flight on Continental airlines.  I had to go to Terminal C and the gate was 111A.  In the next hour we had gate changes to gate 115 and then finally gate 114.  
I finally got to Grand Rapids around 6pm and drove to Battle Creek about 1 hour and 30 minutes away.  So it was a long interesting day.   The best part was the urge to look and verify the time and gate. Because if I  had gone through Security and only then found out the original flight was cancelled  I may have missed the other flight as well.  The second interesting thing was the fact that the airlines actually had an arrival time of 11:11.  You would think they would show 11:10 or  5 minute intervals. 
There are only 3 real tall buildings in this city. One is the Hotel I'm at and the second building is 3 blocks away and that's the one I'll be working at.  The third is within a few blocks as well. 
Hope everyone has a great day
Love and Peace
