Departing Paradise

Our trip ended early Thursday morning as we departed Culebra for a short flight to San Juan, Puerto Rico. It is always fun to be sitting in a small, regional airport and the power go out. Lack of power at the airport is a good way to calm your nerves before boarding the tiny plane. Another trick to calming nerves it to ask the passengers to step on the luggage scales and check weights. Then scribble the numbers on a sheet of paper and add them by hand before giving a thumbs up that we are okay to fly!

The plane ride off the island was actually smooth and a good ending to our trip.

Once in San Juan, we shared a taxi with an older woman from Spain who travels the world for fun. She shared some solid traveling tips and left us envious of all her adventures. After a brief stop in Orlando, Sarah and I landed in Birmingham and could not drive home fast enough to see our girls.

I love traveling and seeing the world, but nothing is better than returning home and having three little ladies waiting to jump into your arms. Actually, it was only two in my case, as Selah only wanted her mother!


Love taking pictures of all the random airports I get to visit.
