North, South, East, West

My current tour required me to travel north and west to Toronto, Canada to meet my group coming west from the UK. From the airport we board the coach and drive to our hotel in Niagara Falls on the Canadian side for a one-night stay after which we cross the border into NY, drive south through NY, PA, MD, Washington DC, then north through MD, PA, NJ, NY, then east to Long Island, then west to NYC and finally further north and west to Niagara Falls, Canada. I will deposit my group at the Toronto Airport for their flight east to the UK and I will take a flight south and east back to Long Island.
I arose at 4:00AM to travel west to the airport and caught my 6:30AM international flight.
When I got to the Airport in Toronto I had to walk east through gigantic terminal 1, turn North to find the luggage carousels, continue west to enormous terminal 3, go north to arrivals to meet my group at which time I found the flight information screens and found out that their flight was delayed 2 hours.
At about this time my energy level went SOUTH!
So I settled in for the 5 hour wait, made some friends in similar situations, i.e. Other tour managers waiting for their groups. My group arrived on time (two hours late) and we were ready to begin the journey....stay tuned for more.
