St Croix

Yes, we are here...finally.

I say finally but we weren't actually delayed that long. We arrived in San Juan last night around 8:40. I was a little concerned because our flight left San Juan to St Croix at 9:10. That isn't boarding time, that is flight time. :) So, we rushed off the plane and luckily the airport at San Juan is very small so we made it to our gate only to realize that they weren't even boarding yet. Darrin talked to the American Airlines lady and was told that our flight was delayed and she would make an announcement soon. After all was said and done we ended up flying out of San Juan around midnight or so. There were several people who weren't happy. I really didn't want to end up staying the night in San Juan but I would have. My only concern at that point was that I had nothing of 'overnight' use in my carry-on except a toothbrush. I am glad that we had this experience because I now know better what should go in my carry-on. :)

Well, we are here at Darrin's dads. It is beautiful. His apartment is right on the ocean. This morning Darrin and I sat in front of the huge open window and listened to the ocean. What a glorious sound!! Sitting here looking out just reminds me of how big our God is. I mean, I see this huge ocean and I can't see the end of it. The waves are coming in and it is just a truly beautiful sight! I stuck my head out the open window this morning and felt the warm ocean breeze blowing on my face and was just so anxious to get down there. We are going down this afternoon. Tonight Darrin said that we are going to dinner and to hear some live music so that will be fun.

Okay, I am getting off this computer and going to enjoy more of God's handiwork. Truly amazing our God is!
