The next morning, I heard about the earthquake in New Zealand the day before.
I woke up at 10:00 am. on Feb 21, 2011 and realized that my alarm had never gone off.
By the time I got to the airport, my plane to New Zealand had already taken off.
The other planes were full so I had to wait till the next day.
I jumped out of bed and went straight to the airport.
