Wonderful Trip Home and now back to South America!

First, I had an AMAZING time back in the states!!! It was so unbelievably good to see my family and friends...just what I needed! Much love to you all xoxooxoxoxoxooxoxoxoxooxoxoxooxoxox

And now, onto life back in South America....

So, Chaya and I met up in Orlando to begin our trek back to South America where I met her parents (so great!) and got to catch up on all our stateside experiences. Then we were off to Houston where we had 5 or so hours to kill. We ended up at Pappadeux where alligator was sampled and we ran into Tim and Molly!!!! It was so great to see them. So good in fact, that we were sorta pushing it to get on our long flight to Buenos Aires. The 10-ish hour flight was pretty uneventful until close to the end when they were serving us breakfast and we got called Double Trouble. And then, when the flight attendant came around again I was greeted with, "Hey Trouble!" Dude, why me?! hahahaha....it's all good!

Anyhow, when we got off our flight there was a little bit of chaos and Chaya and I were sort of oblivious thinking, "Well, we still have 4 hours to kill." Well...little did we know that our connecting flight was actually impossible to get on - it left before we even landed...not our fault (continental took full responsibility). Soooo, a few hours later we ended up at an awesome little hotel/inn near the international BA airport that was not at all what we expected. We knew we were home when a wall of vino greeted us at the door :) But seriously, this was a great way to start our month-long trip around South America...there was a power outage, a crazy computer-crazed man, great food and wine, and completely inappropriate English rap songs on the speakers at dinner that we were dying laughing to as non-English speakers just ate away. Oh man, if this is just a little detour, who knows how the rest of the trip is gonna go!!!! Can't wait!

Gonna try and blog along the way...at least little tidbits so it's my own journal if anything. Stay tuned and can't wait to catch up with you all! xoxoxoxoxoxoxooxox
