Day 172 (194) – Mexico Vacation Day 8

It’s nice to be back home.  After an amazing week of relaxation, adventure, and family bonding, I was ready to come back to what I’ve grown to love.

Luckily we had an early afternoon flight, so we didn’t have to wake up till 9am, had plenty of time to grab breakfast before heading to the airport.  The flight itself was actually early (when has that ever happened?), and we touched down in the ‘Nati (though not really because we went to Greater Cincinnati Airport), around 6pm.  By the time we made it all the way through customs and were on the road to head home, it was already 7:3opm (only 90 minutes just to get out of the airport, not that you guys couldn’t do the math, or were confused as to why it took 90 minutes… shut up).

The nice thing about spending the time to blog each day and to take an additional 3 hours to get all posted up (the reason it’s now almost 2am), is that it allows you reflect on the trip.  I’m really proud of my cousin and his new wife, they’re going to make a great couple.  The wedding was a perfect as anyone could ask, and the fact that there were 75 people that were willing to spend a boat load of money to go down and support them (the vacation was a nice plus), says a lot about them, and our families.

A quick note about pictures – I took a lot more than were posted on the blog, and also have quite a few that other people took.  Once I get them all uploaded and put into one location, I’ll post the link so you can see all of the various things we did.  Eventually I want to turn some of the pictures into a graphic story (think comic book), so stay tuned for that as well.
