The joys of traveling

Well, yesterday I was supposed to fly from Pucallpa to Lima to Miami to Chicago. I made it as far as Lima. My flight to Miami last night was canceled because the pilot was sick and in the hospital. However, I did not find out it was canceled until after I had been sitting at the gate for about an hour. Then came the fun of getting out of security (which means them having to cancel my exit stamp in my passport), then going down and getting my luggage, heading over to the American Airlines counter and wait about an hour in line to get my flight rescheduled. I got my flight rescheduled from 11:30pm last night to 4pm today. However, leaving Lima at 4pm gets me into Miami too late at night for a flight to Chicago. So, I have to stay the night in Miami and then fly to Chicago tomorrow morning. Along with rescheduling my flight, American also gave me a hotel room, taxi ride to and from the hotel and meals. At first I was a little bummed that I wasn't able to stay at the airport hotel, but when I walked into my room at Thunderbird Hotels, I was not disappointed. The hotel room is amazing and the bed was super comfortable. One of the best nights of sleep I have had in a while. Even though I didn't sleep very long, at least it was in a very comfortable bed! So for now I am hanging out in my hotel room until the taxi comes back for me at 1:30pm. Hopefully he doesn't forget! =) Thanks for all your prayers for safe travels...they have been answered so far. Please keep praying that I get home safely tomorrow.
