Travelin'

David - Gil and I began our trip at 7am.  We arrived early at Nashville's International airport and had a pleasant time sitting around for our flight with EXIT ROW SEATS.  Arrived in Miami on time and the fun began.  We had to go from Concourse D to Concourse J.  It is not that easy to find.  Also lots of walking.  We arrived at the gate 20 minutes before boarding.  We were turned back because we apparently did not have a phone number in the system but that was quickly fixed.  Gil met a young lady who had something in common with his son but that is Gil's story to tell.  The 3+ hour flight to Quito was uneventful until the landing.  We bounced big time. After getting through immigration and customs (a lesson on how to correctly fill out the paper work would be nice.  I never am sure what they are asking) we met our driver and let's just say he drove like my older brother.  I enjoyed the ride immensely.  As you will have read by Gil's blog we settled in fine.  Only issue we have to clear up so far.  Find out when we will be picked up Thursday for the return ride to the airport for our flight to the Galapagos.
