Florida Trip Part 1

This year, we left for Florida on December 24. We were meant to take a trip with a stop but we got to the airport super early to switch to the non stop…which was then delayed by like 5 hours. Our tickets were then canceled when we didn’t board the original plane we were supposed to switch to in Atlanta…but they got us back on the still delayed flight. We bonded with the other people on our plane, including a lady who told us her son went to the school my kids go to and then introduced us to someone who is brothers with someone the kids are friendly with, although we never knew this brother existed! So after all of that, we ended up landing in Florida around midnight. We arranged to stay in a hotel that night so we didn’t keep any of our parents awake and waiting for us. So it was a hectic beginning to the trip.
