Stuck in Miami (Coral Gables)

The Plan: Leave Philadelphia, Fly to Miami, Transfer to Santiago and then on to Calama and San Pedro.

The actuality: We arrived at PHL at around 4:30, checked-in, went though security, bought a snack and boarded the plane. Then, the only storm of the week set in just as we were waiting to take off, the airport was closed for a time, a backup occurred and we were two hours late arriving in Miami.

Having missed our flight to Santiago, we have checked into a Holiday Inn in Coral Gables, FL, ate dinner at the local TGI Fridays and will try again to fly to Santiago tomorrow night. During the day tomorrow, we will meet with some of Dr. Devlin's BLAST people here at the University of Miami.
