Packing the patience!!

After a very long travel day, I´ve made it to my destination albeit without my luggage and currently don´t know when my host will be home to greet me!

Yesterday, after a 4 hour delay out of Chicago, I barely got to Miami for a delayed flight. The reasons for the delays were many- mechanical, the president in miami and nature apparently there is a volcano or something erupting in South America creating a mess in Florida- if this doesn´t show what a globally connected world we´re in I don´t know what does. The bottom line is while we can do our best to be prepared ultimately we have to go with the flow. This is true with the journey as well as the negotiations- in the end the only thing we can do is be as prepared as we can be and then roll with the changes.

There were some positive outcomes of all the commotion yesterday. I had the opportunity to meet new people who readily shared with me suggestions on where to go to the best beaches while I´m here. Their recommendation has helped me to make a decision that I feel comfortable with.
