Our NYC Story: Day 9

Now it was time to go home. We left at 6:30 am NY time and were supposed to arrive in Albuquerque about 12:30 NM time.Here we were above the clouds.
We had an hour layover in Chicago. They have the whole thing dressed up for their Olympic bid.So we get on the plane and take off. Then about 10 minutes later the pilot comes over the loud speaker and says he is turning the plane around and we are going back to Chicago because of an engine oil light that won't go off. So we spend another hour in Chicago and arrive an hour and a half late to Albuquerque. Boy were we glad to be home!

Sounds like such a fun trip! I have never had any luck at the Chicago Airport, either! They always have it all decked out for something, but I have never been there when I left on time! Glad you guys were able to get away!
