It was an eventful trip!!!

I got up about 4:20am Germany time (7:20pm PST), Talked to my dad for a few minutes, found out that Ruth had gone into labor and had her baby, Matthew Wallace Greene, then left for the airport. I then sat there for about an hour waiting for the Delta officials to get to work and check in my bag. Then I had to argue with her for five minutes that my backpack that had my laptop was my personal bag, and my other mini suitcase was my carry-on. Since the person who asked me a whole bunch of question (Like did you pack your suitcase? Is there anything that would look like a weapon? Etc) had put a Delta Approved tag on both my backpack and carry-on she finally let me proceed without checking a second bag. I also had to throw my shampoo and Conditioner away because my bag was slightly too heavy. Then I went through security fine and waited at my gate. The AmBex Girl I was traveling with went to get coffee, and sat down and started talking to this guy (she can make friends ANYWHERE). She found out that he is rich and was watching my whole argument and if that Delta Lady had forced me to check a second bag he was going to go pay for it. That was miracle #1. Then we sat there another two hours and finally boarded our plane. I was unfortunately nauseated the whole ten and a half our flight because I was so Nervous about going through Customs. I couldn't eat the food they gave me because it had a weird sauce on it plus I was nauseated. So I ate about 4 bags of pretzels and drank cola, apple juice and a little Orange Juice the whole flight. Then When I went through Customs they had changed the amount you could bring in without paying taxes to higher and I didn't have to pay taxes on presents. That was Miracle #2. Then Because I had been riding in Germany, and to a barn in Wales I had to go through the Agricultural Re-Immigration Process. The people in front of me were having SO many problems they just scanned my bags and waved me through. That was Miracle #3. Then I had no problems going through security with a snow-globe in my carry-on in my quart-sized bag (just ask Ruth or me about another time and me and snow-globes and carry-on). That was Miracle #4. Then I got to my gate and tried to get bumped, because they had combined two flights, but it didn't happen. So I boarded and we took off. This was supposed to only be a 5hour and 15Minute Flight. I hadn't had any real food for about 12 hours, and the plane wouldn't except cash, so the guy next to me bought me a fruit and cheese box, this was miracle #5 well about half-way through we had a medical emergency happen. We had three doctors and a couple nurses and they asked anyone with seizure medicine to please give it to the doctors. They still couldn't control the emergency and we had to Divert to Salt Lake City Airport. We landed really hard, Taxied the Fastest I ever had, When Turning corners it felt like when a car is driving to fast and takes a corner to fast, then slammed on our brakes when we got to our gate, the plane came to a SUDDEN stop. Then Paramedics came on board and took the lady off, and we had to stay on the plane but could move around for a total of 20-30 minutes. I called my dad using the nice-guys phone next to me, same one that bought me a meal, and they had already left the house and had to turn around. They had to load the correct amount of food and fuel on to the plane while we were siting there, and so once we took off, we got snacks again. We finally arrived in Portland Airport about 8:10pm PST (This is almost 25 hours after I had gotten up in Regensburg to leave, and I only had 3 hours of sleep before leaving, and then about 2 on the first plane. I was EXHAUSTED), about an hour and a half late. We got my bags and went to Taco Bell for dinner for me, and then to the barn where I said hi to my horse. I didn't get to ride because my plane was late and so it was to late to ride. So I got up the next morning, and cleaned stalls and then rode my horse. It was an eventful trip.
