Home Safely

Our plane ended up being delayed about 2hours from Chicago. We are lucky that we had an early flight, things were only going to get worse. Our delay was due to the de icing of our plane. It took 2 tries. We landed in San Juan a little after 5pm. We boarded our plane to St.Thomas about 15 minutes later. We landed in St. Thomas a few minutes early. Once we got our bags in the car we high tailed it to Red Hook to try to make the 7pm people ferry. We did not make the people ferry but we did make the car barge. There is only 1 barge running, out of 4, so they do runs until everyone is gone on St. Thomas. Lucky for us that meant a 7:20 car barge. We were the last car on. By the time we got home, fed the kids, unpacked it was almost 10. Tuesday was a school day for everyone! Back to school and back to our daily life.

Some updates from while we were gone... Both islands lost power for about 36 hours on Tuesday and Wednesday before Thanksgiving. Jay saw Kenny Chesney out at Woodys on Friday. Our landlord has been fixing a lot of stuff in the house, I dont know what has gotten into him!
