We left Lansing at 5:45 AM this morning from Jim Goble's home in Okemos. I drove one of our team member's (Judy Hoeve) Dodge Ram to the airport for her so that we'd have our return ride next Saturday evening. I had already been up since 3:00 AM since I had just a busy day on Friday, trying to tie up all the loose ends at home and church. As I I looked up at the LED temperature display in Judy's truck I had to rub my eyes twice to make sure that what I was seeing was really true--1° F. Little did I know that upon arrival in Santo Domingo, my body would be experiencing an 89° F shift in temperature. Not that I was arguing about the warm temperature mind you!Our Delta Airlines flight left Detroit about 30 minutes late, causing us to arrive 20 minutes prior to our connecting flight in Atlanta. Although we raced through the airport from Terminal B to Terminal E barely making our flight, our luggage was not as fortunate. So when we arrived safely @ 3:00 PM in Santo Domingo we had no luggage until Sunday evening. Only to find out later that our luggage arrived later that same day on an American Airlines flight. Oh, well!! We stayed at the Barceló Lina on Saturday night. I couldn't wait to retire for the evening since I got up at 3:00 am since I still needed to pack.
