Wow! 4 AM! (Proceeds to roll over and sigh while Codee is up and ready to leave for her 7 AM flight.)
After getting all ready, we went downstairs to find that Mei-Jing, Grace, and I could just sleep until 8:00 AM. So we went back upstairs and passed out. Then we had a nice breakfast which had plantains. (Note to self; make good plantains.) Come to find that our taxis had huge propane tanks in the back of them as part of the motor or something, so instead of just 2 taxis, we took 3. One had only luggage. The ride was a little nerve racking, but overall fast and smooth. We got our tickets and then went through security and Grace, Mei-Jing, and I met a really cool and buff Asian guy who was just hanging out in Honduras who graduated from FSU. He was pretty chill. After security we found our gate (#6 out of 6...) and I got a marchuyá smoothie and some gifts for home since I didn't nearly spend the amount of money I thought I would. Mei-Jing found her gate with the help of the buff Asian guy who was also going to Atlanta, and she headed on her way.
Carlos and I watched the Lion King 2 ALL the way up until the last second. (We were about last on the plane and the movie ended right before we entered the plane.) He'd never seen it before so of course, I was super excited to show him, and he loved it.
I'm seat 24 D next to a young couple with a tiny baby who is pretty quiet. I tried sleeping, but this plane is a bit too small and I'm a bit too hungry for that.
Of course, after a nice din dins and ice cream, I miss my flight by 3 minutes. I was on the phone with my mom, and.... Missed it. Thankfully after two seconds of a breakdown, I was able to get a free hotel and a free flight change. The hotel was very nice (minus the occasional bug) and I enjoyed having a room to myself for 5 minutes.
