Ain't travelin' fun.....

Ya win some, ya lose some
The Reno to Denver flight was delayed by a faulty indicator light (I always wonder about those) and the landing was delayed by a thunderstorm. As a result, the Lufthansa flight to Frankfort left before our United flight even landed. To compound matters there were no more flights available that would get us to Oslo, United's system automatically transferred the luggage to Lufthansa and since their last flight of the day had already departed, all the Lufthansa staff had gone home. This meant an overnight in Denver without luggage. Thanks to United for the hotel room; thanks to the Rennaisance for the toothbrush, etc; and thanks to Safeguard (soap) for being able to wear the same clothes for several days without "offending".
The new plan is Denver to Newark followed by a direct flight to Oslo for a Friday arrival. And the luggage? Who knows!
