Toronto to Lima

We rose early and took the shuttle to the airport. Check in went smoothly as did the customs as we were put through the Nexus line. The plane was about 15 minutes late leaving but everything else went smoothly. After 5 hours of flying we were starting to prepare for landing and then we kept circling as the weather was bad. After a good half hour, we made a quick bumpy landing and we all cheered. As we stood up to get off the plane, we were asked to take our seats once again, not because the "plane had not come to a complete stop" but because we had landed at an airport that was not our final destination!! We had landed at a small airport just outside Panama because of the storm and everything else had been shut down because of the storm. We sat on the tarmac and the rain and wind really raged around us. Finally, after about two hours we left the small airport and flew 10 minutes to the main Panama airport. Since all planes had been held, we were able to catch our connecting plane to Lima. We had a relatively smooth flight to Lima and our drivers were there waiting for us at 12:30 at night. We arrived at the Luxury Hotel Inkari at 12:59AM (1:59 our time). We fell into bed at 3:00 AM local time, a 22 hour day! There are no pictures for Oct 28th.もっと詳しく
