Tues 8 Mar

Yay!!!!!!! Vacation day is finally here! Hopefully by 6:45, we will be on the road with intention of a nice breakfast at Manna before getting to the airport by about 10:00. We fly out at 11:45 and have layovers in Chicago and Miami, so we don't get in to St Maarten til about 10:30 pm, but there were no flights available arriving earlier. We have someone meeting us at the airport to drive us to the hotel and we pick up our rental car at the hotel, so we don't need to worry about driving today. The hotel provides a couple bottles of water, beers, and sodas in the fridge for the first day as well as coffee for breakfast. I'm also taking more coffee from home so we don't have to buy it in the supermarket for the rest of the trip. Food: 6:10 am Hot cross bun, 71 g blackberries, coffee
