Crux with the rest of G-Squad made it’s way across the Atlantic ocean. With the sun chasing us
, it made for two very LONG days of traveling.
, it made for two very LONG days of traveling.Fortunately we had a 15 hour layover in Boston, Mass. and took the opportunity to enjoy the first time we had been on American soil in 9 months. Woah!

g over on the plane I thought, “What do I really want to do while I’m in America? Do I want to sight see? Enjoy some Boston culture and cuisine? Take in the history of the habor?” And then it came to me. The materialistic thing I have missed most this whole year, the thing that I have dreamed of and looked forward to that fateful day when I walk through it’s welcoming doors: Whole Foods.

Some may call it an unhealthy obsession, some may call it an idol, but after 9 months of eating whatever food was available, fresh organic comfort food
was the highlight of my American tour. As I stepped through those automatic doors my nostrils were filled with the scent of fresh produce, and my eyes took in all the organic choices. I was overwhelmed, not by the sheer size, but by the sheer beauty…I may have teared up a little. This was definitely a comfort gift from God. Thank You!!!

Thank You!!!We also stopped by Target and stocked up on some missed luxury toiletries and candies you can’t get anywhere else–like Reese’s Peanut Butter cups! 🙂 YUM!!! We topped off our night by going to Texas Roadhouse and enjoyed steak and salmon from an American original chain restaurant.
After another layover in Ft Lauderdale, G-Squad finally made it to Guatamala City and then onto Antigua for debrief after about 33 total hours of travel.
