I probably need to correct our countdown timer for the trip. We had originally scheduled a 10:25am flight from Denver to Philly, with the Philly to Barcelona leg following within a couple of hours. Seems they canceled our 10:25pm flight, and had rebooked us on a 7:00am flight to Philly without letting me know. There's a 1:30pm flight, but by the time we'd get to Philly, the Barcelona flight would already be long gone.
Given that the whole itinerary is "international", they wanted us and our luggage at the Denver airport at 5:00am. That just wasn't gonna happen. Our ground transportation service doesn't want to hear about 4:00am pickups, and I SURE don't want to hear about a 3:00am alarm clock to start a vacation.
So we're out a day ahead now, leaving the 5th at 1:30pm, and we'll have much of the 6th to goof around in Philly before leaving for Barcelona. Think we'll take in the Franklin Museum ... have somehow missed that on previous visits, and it's just a few stops from the train station at the airport.
