Last night, Saturday, our flight from la guardia to miami got cancelled, because the plane needed a new engine. We spent a few hours in the airport, and finally arranged for a flight to miami via dallas this morning. They even put us up for the night in a swanky hotel, although we only sleptfor four hours. At 6 this morning, we headed out in first class for dallas, and then flew first class to miami.

In Miami, we missed an opportunity. They called out, "If anyone will give up their seat on this flight to bogota until tomorrow, we´ll give a 400 dollar travel voucher and put you up tonight."Ryan had already, spookily, mentioned exactly what we should do in this situation, and it was take the offer. But somehow, when it came down to it, after all of our travel difficulties, we hesitated. And the moment slipped away. I walked up to claim the vouchers, and the man waved me away like I was Oliver Twist. We started to hate ourselves, then made a pact to never mention it, except for this blog post, of course.

We flew into bogota without a hitch. Now we are at a hostel. We have drank some beer and eaten delicious fajitas.

Tomorrrow, we are finding neil a dentist.
