Little Kat needed to fly to visit his dad. The plan left early in the morning. So we planned to get there as early as we could wake up. Normally there is nobody there so early in the morning. We should have known something was up when the parking lot was almost full.

It took a while line before we could check Little Kat's bags in. By the time we got to the counter, it was too late to guarantee that his suitcase would make it on the plane. We decide he could just carry the thing on with him. Then we got to the security line. The line was so long we couldn't even enter the massive area where you wait.

An airport employee noticed this problem, and directed everyone to go downstairs and enter security through an alternate entrance. Little Kat took charge and told the family to run. We got down in a much smaller line. We entered security with some time to spare. Then we found that Little Kat's flight was delayed.

We took advantage of the situation. Little Kat and I ate some pretzel hot dogs. We all ordered some drinks too. Little Kat had woken up the previous morning early to print out his boarding pass. He was in the first lane of people to board the plane. Momoko and I waited until his plane taxied out onto the runway. When we could no longer see the plane, we took off and drove towards McDonald's for some breakfast.
