It has almost been 10 years from the time we both finish our mission in Chile. Marcos still has the flying benefits from when he worked at sky west so we thought it would be a good idea to visit Chile. Then when Marcos' Parents wanted to come and visit we asked if they would want to watch the girls while we took a little trip. To enter into Chile for the first time we have to pay $130. per person. And now that Marcos is a U.S. citizen he had to pay that as well. So that was the main reason we wanted to leave the girls at home. As we flew to Atlanta and go there in the morning we had 6 hours to wast. Marcos has always wanted to go to the world of Coke. So with out the kids we were off on our adventure. And flying standby and going on vacation with my husband is always an adventure!! Oh did I mention that the only thing we had planned was the car rental. We Never made hotel reservation. I wanted to stay in the Holiday Inn there but when we got there the were charging $100 or more a night so the 2 night we did stay in Hotels were about $24 dollars a night. But as we learned later the "Motels" were we stayed at the people know them as how can I put this... One night stand flings. To be honest some the people houses we stayed in were scarier then the Motel and they had heat! I was Happy!!
