Volcanoes Suck

God's timing is perfect. But sometimes it sure doesn't feel that way.

I love how I just read this:

"In Iceland, meteorologists said eruptions from the volcano were
weakening and the ash was no longer rising to a height where it would
endanger large commercial aircraft. British Transport Secretary Andrew
Adonis confirmed there was been a "dramatic reduction in volcanic
activity."

Which is really frustrating to hear when you are suppose to leave for a highly anticipated trip to Europe with your family in 24 hours and it is starting to clear out and Europe is starting to figure out a solution to the problem:

"European officials carved up the sky Monday, creating three zones to
more quickly break the flight deadlock caused by volcanic ash flowing
from Iceland over Europe."

And 24 hours after you cancel your flights:

"Germany's aviation authority granted Lufthansa an exemption to fly 50
long-haul planes carrying 15,000 passengers back home at a very low
altitude..."
Britain chimed in with more good news, saying flight restrictions over
Scottish airspace will be lifted Tuesday morning at 7 a.m. (0600 GMT,
2 a.m. EDT) and other British airports could reopen later that day as
well."

Thanks God.
