The original plan today was to fly back to Medellin, spend the night , then go home to Charleston.
After one last meal at Kawa, we headed to the airport.
On arrival at the airport in Pereira we were informed our flight was Demorado. (delayed)
After studying the Departures board we noticed the flight to Miami, and since we had no real reason to go back to Medellin, we were able to get on the Miami flight.
So after several hours we got searched and dog sniffed then got on and set in our choice seats in the very back of the plane.
Arriving in Miami we were immediately told we missed our connecting flight and there were none going our way until tomorrow afternoon. So a night at the Miami Blue Lagoon Hilton. The sad part was our one night there, including a trip to the bar, cost more than we spent in 4 days in Colombia.
DAY 9. JULY 15, 2023 Miami FL
Our flight was scheduled to leave late afternoon so we had most of the day to spend in Miami.
We decide to visit Vizcaya Museum and Gardens. This is the estate of James Deering, of the Deering McCormick-International Harvester fortune, on Biscayne Bay in the present-day Coconut Grove neighborhood. Read more here.
After a day at Vizcaya, we packed up and headed back to Charleston. Overall it was a wonderful trip and we would highly recommend going to Colombia , South America.
