The other Portland (September 23-27, 2021)

Cheryl and I visited Portland, Maine, for our annual girl trip.  September 23 ended up being a longer travel day than we'd planned. American Airlines eventually came through to get us there.  After letting us know at 4:30 a.m. via text that our 8:10 a.m. flight was a "go," Cheryl Ubered to our house.  By 5:15 a.m. American sent us a text saying our flight was cancelled and we'd been re-booked on a 1:30 p.m. flight, with a 4-hour layover in Charlotte, NC.  There weren't may other options on such short notice so we took Cheryl home until the new flight time.  Cheryl and I rolled with it in Charlotte, enjoying dinner and finally getting to Portland at around 11 p.m. instead of 3 p.m.  Our HomeAway was an easy walk to Casco Bay.  Such a beautiful way to start the first real day of our trip!
