Safe and Sound in DFW

We're in Dallas. Long flight from Santiago, Chile. We couldn't fly through Santa Cruz, which would have been a lot faster to Miami than our route south to Chile and then all the way north to Dallas-Fort Worth. But we're here and we're fine. Sad to leave La Paz but we had plenty of company. Two of Jake's buddies were on board so he was tickled.

None of us slept very well on the overnight flight even though Lisette and Nicole had an empty seat beside them and Jake and I had the two seats up against the window. Oh well, the beds in our beach house are going to feel sooooo good!

I'll post again when we get there. Thanks for the prayers, they really help!!

I spoke to John a few minutes ago, all is quiet in the Embassy and in La Paz. "Peace talks" are expected so hopefully we'll be cleared to return at the 30 day mark!!

This has to be so hard on all of you. I hope it helps to know you are in my thoughts and prayers. I am so glad you are safe and sound.
