Peru and returning home

Bus picked us up, we flew to Lima...waited around for six hours and wanted to check in our luggage so that we could go sightseeing. But the American Airlines counter didn't open till 7:00 (it was 3:00) so it didn't leave enough room for us to sightsee and we did not want to cart our luggage around Lima. So we played Presidents and bought dinner. Surprisingly it was very American-starbucks, Papa John's, McDonalds, Dunkin Donuts...! We waited till seven when we walked downstairs and joined a long line. When they started letting people into the counter, the line just got incredibly longer. And we found out that our flight was delayed for an hour. After that, we went through security and and security and security! We got to our gate and waited and loaded and flew for five hours. We got dinner and we watched the Bounty Hunter (it was available; we didn't actually watch it). We landed in Miami and had to unload, pick up our luggage and walk for a mile to passport control, go through customs, check our luggage onto the plane, then walk for another mile to our gate. Which, by the time we got there, was loading. :P It took over an hour to walk and get through customs. :P But this plane was AMAZING. Everyone had a personal touch-screen computer and you could use the touch screen or use the remote control in your arm rest. :) Those five hours went by quickly. They had games and movies (albeit only a few of the listed were actually available; Mom and I watched the Ghost Writer) and music and TV shows....And when we arrived, we had to wait quite a while to get our luggage and then we walked out to the curb and almost immediately Chris Sikrowski, the Young Adults pastor at church, drives up in Cory's truck. We load up and Cory drives about half the team. Willie also came with Chris to pick us up. A few minutes later, Eric drives up and loads the rest of us up. We beat them to curch because Cory dropped Herb off at his house. Aftrer everyone is picked up at church, Cory drops our family off at home where we are heartily welcomed. And then we went to In'n'Out. :)
