Fort Lauderdale, FL

Hi all!

I received a ton of calls today. I actually work in Fort Lauderdale not too far from the airport. We could hear the sirens and noticed the planes ✈️ circling around because they were unable to land.
Then there was an individual who jumped off a bridge on a major highway, what a day.

In the end, I'm safe. Thank God my little 5 year old cousin flew out yesterday vs today. He's traveling by himself with of course an attendant. Scary just scary

    Sure was. I have family in the area and am thankful none of them had flights yesterday. Glad your cousin was safe.

    These shootings are becoming commonplace. It's got to stop. Glad you're safe.

    We were there in a different terminal, thankfully. But chaos broke out in ours (the alleged second shooter) but it was a false alarm. I've never been so scared in my life. We escaped through the back door of a restaurant we were in and hid in a baggage container on the tarmac for awhile. It was really tough, but we are all safe and sound. Not home yet, hopefully tomorrow.

    Yikes, Bluebird, that's horrible. I'm glad you are okay.

    Amber--It's good your cousin was not there.

    Laura, I'm glad your family is safe. Bluebird, I'm so sorry that you all had to experience that but I am truly thankful that you guys were unharmed. I'm really sick of hearing about these things, it's heartbreaking
