We’re finally able to visit dear husband’s best friend in Michigan this year. They had been talking and planning about this for a while now. Thankfully, everything worked as planned. Darling daughter and I were very excited because we’ll be meeting his best buddy and his family. Also, we’ll be seeing part of Michigan where my husband lived during junior high school years-Manistee.
We flew American Airlines’ direct flight to Grand Rapids from Dallas-Fort Worth. Very convenient departing and arrival times to and from our destination which we had been comparing cheap flights with other airlines for weeks. After lots of talks, dear husband agreed flying American Airlines. 😀
We had an amazing trip. Although one of our baggage was delayed, we just waited for it to show up with the next flight to Grand Rapids that afternoon. Good thing it wasn’t lost. Haha. While waiting for that baggage, we headed to the Hertz car rental office to pick up the SUV we rented. I was very happy because it was upgraded to a bigger SUV. We had a lot of space for our stuff when we travel along. It was a Volkswagen Atlas.
After all that verification process at the car rental company, we went ahead and settled our luggage in the car and entered the baggage claim area again to wait for the delayed one which came in two and a half hours. After that, we left the airport and drove straight to Kalamazoo where the Air Zoo Museum is.
