Off to Honduras! All 10 of us. Slowly, and kinda surely we made it there. We got up at 4am for our 7am flight out of RDU which didn't leave until 2pm because of a loose fuel screw... and we were delayed another 5 hours in Miami because of a computer system down, but finally the group arrived to San Pedro Sula, Honduras. Because of the delay in Miami, we missed the flight to La Ceiba, but spent the night in San Pedro Sula. Rewind to the 8 hours in Raleigh. The delay obviously messed up all of our other flights, so in compensation, we successfully won 10 lunch vouchers, 10 dinner vouchers, 4 taxi vouchers, 5 hotel room vouchers, and business class from Miami to San Pedro Sula (we deserved it, after 19 hours of waiting and more waiting)!!! Despite the meal eaten in Miami, everyone enjoyed the three course meal filled with salad, pork tenderloin, asparagus, corn potatoes, and toffee sundae. Add in first class service and 8 weary kids are suddenly transformed into happy travelers. Back to San Pedro, on the way to the hotel, in one of the taxis, just August and Janie were riding together. The taxi driver was playing 'Dancing Queen' and Nugget leans over and whispers “All I can think about is the movie Taken.”
Spill Count: 1 cup of water in RDU
