St. John's, Newfoundland & Labrador (Canada)

Our crew got ready to leave early - our checkout of the Delta Hotel took place (as scheduled) at 0710L.  When we reached the airport, though, we learned we'd have little time to kill because the weather was really poor (visibility). Hours later, it looked like we would not be able to leave at all - a bit later, though, we got word the ceiling had lifted just enough to get airborne. After departing St. John's, we had to dodge several big storms that were scattered across the Northeastern US.  Fortunately, things looked better south of Norfolk and we made it to Atlanta before dark.  It's good to be home!
