Thought I'd update anyone who's interested that we made it - finally - to our condo in Playa Ocotal. We are getting settled in this evening and will post pics of the THREE days of travel to make it to this beautiful place soon.
We drove down to Denver on Friday afternoon. We stayed at Mom and Dad's with Wayne and Sandy - shout out to Sweetie and Papa! Thanks for the amazing and comfortable accomodations!
Then Devin and Belle came bright and early on Saturday morning to help get the whole crew - and the LUGGAGE - out to DIA by about 8:45. Shout out to Bel-Vin --- THANKS!!!
And the thing that I am celebrating most so far on our adventure --- SEVEN CHECKED BAGS!!! (9 if you count Wayne and Sandy's and 10 if you count Jack's car seat!) We had planned for just one checked bag and the girls and Dave and I to each wheel a 'carry-on' suitcase --- Praise the Lord, we didn't have to do that -- shout out to Peg with American Airlines!!!
So, the kids and I are unpacking while Dave, Sandy, and Wayne all rode back into Coco for groceries. When we mentioned going to the grocery store, Jack said, "that will be too hard for me..." Seriously? Wish this kid would verbalize more!!! ;) He still hasn't seen the beach yet but seems to be happy to be out of a seat.
I must mention that it is raining cats and dogs -- I mean rain like I've never seen before... and I was a little nervous that that might make me nuts... but the rain is different here somehow - oh, it's warm!!! ;)
Anyway... just thought I'd check in!

I'm with Jack. Going to the grocery store will be too hard for me.
ReplyDeleteGlad you all arrived in one piece! Have an umbrella-decorated drink on the sand for me!
By the way, I fully intend to quote Jack EVERY STINKING TIME I have to make the big haul for groceries at Wal-Mart. Imagine that! Jack is totally quotable now!
ReplyDeleteSo glad to get an update. I was worried that I would have to get on shauna's Facebook account to find out about your adventures. Looking forward to hearing all about your adventures!
ReplyDeleteOh how I'm praising HIM for watching over your family. Appreciate the update and am just doing a little happy dance for all that is to come for our dear friends, the Huberts. Love you guys!
ReplyDeleteJedi-Mama - had a guado sour in your honor today -- a refreshing drink made with sugar cane liquor --- YUM! Think I will have one by the pool tomorrow for you too!
