The wind eats up my 4 iron on 15, which leads to a four hole collapse to finish out. I play the last four 9 over to finish with a 91 at a legit tour caliber course in 30+ mph winds.
I wake up at 2 am on Monday morning and we pack, getting to Edinburgh at 6:00 am. The rental car (a Skoda, by the way, a ****ing Czech car) is dropped off and we check in for our flight. At 8:00 we are told to wait until 10:00 am (for an 8:40 departure) for further instructions. Apparently, the plane almost crapped out mid flight and they can’t fix it so…
After a 3 hour wait in line for new tickets, we are scheduled to fly out of Glasgow on Tuesday morning. After another 2+ hour wait in the airport, we are shuttled to the airport hotel, where we fly out from Glasgow at 10:30 Scotland time.
Currently, I’m stuck in Philadelphia for another 5 hours of layover. I’ll get to KC sometime around 11 tonight and I’ll have enough 2+ hour drive home. I’ll post pictures at a later date.
It was a really nice experience from a golf perspective, but also somewhat disappointing due to the courses missed, and endlessly frustrating because of the incompetence of Continental, and the life events that happened when I was gone.
At this point, I just want to be home.
