Leave Fort Lauderdale Aiport for our flight to Denver International


We were supposed to take off at 3:05 pm - finally depart around 3:30 due to bad weather
Flight overbooked
At our gate, as we were waiting to board the plane we ran into Alfredo Ameziga
of the Florida Marlins - he was flying to Denver to see a Knee specialist in Vail.
Amy and the boys went over to meet him, he was very courteous to them.
Extremely bumpy for about the first 1-1/2 hours - then smoothed out
Noah was very sleepy (due to his medicine prior to the flight), he slept on Amy’s
lap for most of the flight - about 2/3 of the way through the flight Noah threw-up
all over the plane, floor, seat, isle and himself. We didn’t have an extra change of
clothes for him on the plane. Noah threw-up, or looked like he was going to for
the rest of the flight.
After circling DIA for about 40 minutes we finally landed about 45 or 50 minutes
late. We got off the plane, went to baggage claim (which was very slow), got our
bags, took the Alamo bus to rent our car. Our car was a Dodge Durango. As
soon as we put Noah into the car, he threw-up again.
We went to the hotel, checked in and picked up the box of stuff we sent UPS.
(We sent all the camping gear and car seats) I emptied the box and went to
Walmart to pick up a few things while Amy bathed the boys and got them ready
for bed. I brought dinner back to the hotel, the boys ate and went to sleep.
While they were falling asleep, I went to Old Chicago to grab a bite to eat for
myself; then went to King Soopers to buy supplies for the camping and hiking
portion of the trip.
I went back to the hotel and went to bed.
