Random Ruminations of My Mind

this past weekend had its ups and downs. i was supposed to get on a flight friday evening back to toronto in order to attend a friend’s wedding. unfortunately, that didn’t happen.

my flight from Providence, RI got cancelled due to bad weather (wind gusts of up 70mph apparently). the plane i was supposed to board had no chance in those kind of conditions because it was a really small 20-seater plane. to make things worse the guy at the counter, who told me my flight got cancelled, was being a prick and pretty much gave me an ‘800′ number for air canada and told me to book my own ticket out of there. i was first in line, and so i had 20 people behind me who were ready to tell him a piece of their mind. luckily the manager arrived and basically took care of things for us.
he booked us the next direct flight out which was the next morning at 11am, but that meant that i was gonna miss my friend’s wedding . everything happens for a reason i guess…

anyways, i took my camera with me and took some pics. to the right is a picture of the mosque out in Woonsocket… quite literally, in the middle of nowhere, they have this really nice mosque.

and below is a picture of the airplane that i had to take. it’s called a ‘beachcraft’ or something like that. seats only 20 passengers. its

funny because when i was checking in i noticed that i got an aisle seat. of course i wanted the window seat and i tried really hard to get one but couldn’t seem to change it. but when i got on to the airplane, i realized why. the aisle seats were ALSO the window seats. the airplane is extremely light and therefore very susceptible to turbulence. at times you felt like you were on a roller coaster.
