Delayed but on our way

Bad weather canceled our flight to Chicago. But we got moved to a later flight. Great. But that got delayed so much we'd miss our Tokyo flight. Bad. But our travel agent (Kaz Konuma at JTB) called to say that the Tokyo flight was delayed too. So we're OK again. Now we're waiting to board. Real soon now.
