On July 6, my family of five lugged our heavy suitcases into Yosemite International Airport in preparation for a three week long vacation in Germany. We got off to a rocky start when our flight from Fresno to SF was delayed, meaning we would miss our flight from SF to Frankfurt. We were told to come back at 4:00 AM the next day and they MIGHT be able to find us a flight. My dad called our travel agent and she was able to book us on another plane. We flew to SF, but had a 7 hr. layover, meaning we sat around in chairs for 7 long hrs. When we finally boarded the plane (which was headed to Munich rather than Frankfurt) we discovered that this plane had an upgrade-individual tv's! The 11 hr. trip went by like nothing. Soon we were on a flight to Hamburg, a town near to where we were staying. We were picked up by my grandma, grandpa, aunt, uncle, and two cousins. We rushed home, a little over the speed limit, to see the Germany vs. Spain game. Read about that below. :(
