We had to very quickly grab our bags, go back through customs, RUN to the next gate and board the plane. Luckily we had airport security escorting us through the airport and we made it just in time.<br /><br />ChristinaLChristinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15934253600377268125noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15694514.post-90259238883255683182012-06-29T06:32:36.634-07:002012-06-29T06:32:36.634-07:00When my kids were little, we were stuck at the Atl...When my kids were little, we were stuck at the Atlanta airport for over 6 hours.
