Michelle & Tony Trip: Day 1: Travel

We started our adventure with an early morning flight out of Salt Lake to Washington Dulles airport with a layover in Denver.
We took the kids to Margie's the night before after Josh's scouts.  They were all very excited to get to have lots of sleepover's at Grandma's and said that they would miss us lots.
We left our house at 3:30 am to make sure we got to the airport, parked our car in long term parking, and then got to our gate in time before our flight left.

We made good time and had time to relax before we had to board the plane.  I knew I would get tired of sitting so I walked around the airport while Tony played his phone.  It was a super small plane but it did it's job and got us to Denver safely.  It was chilly in Denver but the sunrise was beautiful.
We had about an hour before our next flight was to board so we bought us some breakfast and found our gate.  We ate our food and then boarded for our next flight.  That plane was much bigger and more comfortable.  The flight was good and we landed at the Washington Dulles airport.
We then found our way to the car rental place where we picked up our rental car for our trip and then made our way to our hotel that was about 40 minutes away from the airport.  Our room wasn't ready yet so we picked up some lunch to eat on our way to Arlington.
