Shortly after 5 this morning we touched down in Miami. The trip so far has been pretty good. Very long but uneventful.
The flight over the Andes was absolutely spectacular! And the kids all enjoyed the individual screens with games during the flight from Chile to the USA, until they all passed out from exhaustion. I actually got some sleep too!
Now we are waiting for the next connection to Atlanta and from there we head to Kansas City. While we are waiting we decided to have some Pizza for breakfast. And it was fantastic!
Some culture shock has already hit - self flushing toilets, being able to speak English in public, Spanish spoken by all the airport workers, our favorite sodas and candies are available, books are sold in English, and favorite restaurants.
The connection here in the airport is very slow I've tried to upload pictures but can't. I have a lot of them. Several people met us at the bus terminal to say goodbye. Then we crossed paths with others in the terminal in Montevideo and at the airport.
I would write more too but after 24 hours of travel I'm just too tired. I keep having to delete things because I'm hitting all the wrong keys.

So glad to hear you are in the states. I have been thinking about you all day. We are only 3 and a half hours from Kansas City.
I am curious as to wear you guys are heading.
I was wondering how far away you were. We're headed to California for Christmas with family there. Then we head back East in January.
