Goodbye USA


Tuesday the 19th at 8:00 pm was my final goodbye before my semester abroad. Jenae was kind enough to drive me out to LAX to drop me at the airport. Flight 1 left LAX at 10:45 and flew to Miami right through the hurricane which led to about a half hour of solid turbulence, ended up being the first time I ever got sick on a plane ride. To ease my upset stomache I walked around for a while and drank some water. Needless to say this led to little to no sleep, and at the end of the 5 hour plane flight we arrived at Miami at 7 AM and I wasn't any more awake than when I took off. But at least I got to watch the sunrise from above. At this point my body knew it was 4Am but the time change told my eyes it was morning and time for breakfast, so I got some food before the 2nd flight. Flight 2 was three hours and thankfully i got to sleep for most of the flight. We arrived at Sir Grantley Adams airport in Barbados around noon and had to move onto customs even though we were all very tired.

That's really weird that you got sick from the plane ride to Florida because I did too but I threw up when we landed : (
