Traveling + First Thoughts of Puerto Rico | Day 1

We left for Chicago Saturday evening, it had not started snowing in Fort Wayne yet but the closer we got to Chicago the worse the roads were. It was so bad that our 4-hour drive turned into 6 because of how slow we all had to drive. We passed 4 wrecks and it was a great reminder to take it slow and just get to the airport safe! We arrived and then waited for our JetBlue counter to open to check our bag for the flight! 

We didn't really sleep so once 5:00am hit we were just in a daze of sleepy excitement. Ready to be on the plane and sleep but sadly it took almost 1 hour for us to take off once on the plame, because they had to clear off so much snow/ice (we found out today that there were a ton of flights canceled Sunday night, thank goodness we flew out early!) 

It was a very long flight, on and off sleep, hungry, ready to be on the ground and get some food in us!

Once we landed and had our bags and then the long wait for the rental car we were on our way to Moca, PR where Cain's buddy lives. It was great to see a friend after that long day of traveling! The last time we had seen Herandez was on our wedding day! So there were lots to catch up on. His wife, Manely made us amazing Puerto Rican supper. We made it to our amazing hotel late Sunday night and we were greeted by the nicest staff I have ever meet in a hotel. I think they could tell we were tired yet excited to be there finally! Thank you Marriott for being so amazing to us! 

The room is amazing and we feel so blessed to be here staying for free!!! More to come on our second day in Puerto Rico! 



Cain can sleep anywhere at most anytime! Lucky!! We both did not sleep good though on this flight, ready to be on land!
