Our vacation in 2001 was to the United States, the main purpose to attend the wedding of Brian Croston and Angel Erceg which was to take place in Cincinnati, Ohio on 29th September 2001.  A lot of planning had gone into the trip and one or two problems and set backs had had to be overcome but non so much as the events of September 11th when terrorists hit the World Trade Centre in New York.  This was only 8 days before we were scheduled to leave the UK and with all Transatlantic flights suspended it wasn't until the September 18th, the day before our vacation was due to start did we known we would be able to fly.

The thought of what had happened in New York was not going to deter us and we arrived at Manchester Airport in good time to compensate for all the extra security checks that were being carried out.  We admit to feeling a little apprehensive as we took off on Delta Flight DL 64 to Atlanta but that soon dispersed as the flight progressed.  The Boeing 777-200 aircraft had a personal entertainment centre for each passenger and we were able to watch movies of our choice, the pick  of them being Moulin Rouge and A Knight's Tale.

We arrived in Atlanta on time to make our connection to Dallas/Fort Worth, this time on a Boeing 767 arriving there at 6.30pm, some 12 and a half hours after leaving Manchester.

Over the next few pages we hope you can relive with us our vacation and share our pictures and memories.
