Ok, so we're half way through our big move down to Santa Cruz! The whole thing is a bit funny... We made the flight from Wichita to Dallas, then spent the next 8 hours in the Dallas airport!!! We asked for an earlier flight but apparently, they don't do stand by seats with American Airlines anymore... ? So, after eight hours got bumped to about 9.5 hours, we knew we'd be lucky to make our connection in Miami going to La Paz. And...yes, we did miss our flight in Miami...we ran to our gate just in time to see the walk way being pulled back. :/ BUT I was SO happy to get to spend the night in a cozy bed! I know thats sad...but its true. American Airlines paid for the hotel and meals...so all is well! We had to wait 24 hours for another flight, so we will be leaving Miami this evening on a 10:45 flight to La Paz, Bolivia. I think its about a seven(?) hour flight...then from La Paz to Santa Cruz! We'll arrive at around eight o'clock tomorrow (Sunday) morning...
Flying with a bi-lingual person is SO FUN!!!! The majority of airline workers were Spanish speaking...and so he really really really helped things move along! :) Just a little fun fact... Oh, and we got to meet my mom in Dallas for lunch...she left later from Wichita on her way to California so we got to bring her a Happy Meal from MacDonalds at her gate! That was fun and made saying goodbye a bit easier.
Well, I guess thats it for now, thanks for your prayers guys!
