We Arrived....


5 cases, 3 hand lugages and a pram! When we arrived in Belfast airport we met up with our family and we decided to check in (a big thank you to Andy for taking all our luggage to the airport in his van!) The airline management were not happy with us not having return tickets and therefore we had to buy them there and then to return home! We can get them changed at a later date at a cost but it did delay things a bit. We finally got onto the plane after some tearful goodbyes but we were delayed for an hour due to some problems on the plane!

We got to New York and were at the far end of the airport, and we were in a hurry due to the wait in customs and also our delay! However when we arrived our next plane was then delayed by an hour! We couldn't get in touch with our friends in Mexico to let them know!

Thankfully we arrived around 11pm, which is 5am in the morning Ballymena time! The MacKinnons came to collect us, and it was great to have some friendly faces to pick us up!
