I'd rather be in Toronto

...as we're not. We got stuck in immigration in the City of Brotherly Love and missed our connecting flight. On the plus side every one is very friendly, but on the minus side we're stuck here for the next five hours and won't get to Toronto until just before midnight. It seems that the policy here is that they'd rather book us on to a new flight instead of giving people with connecting flights priority in the immigration queue. On the other hand I have a feeling we would have missed the flight anyway as we also got stuck in security checks later on - they were singling out foreigners and blacks and did charming full body and luggage searches on us.

Tomorrow we're planning to be on a breakfast table by eight. This is going to be one tough trip.
