Traveling to Navajo Nation

          Our trip to Navajo Nation kicked off today. Several of us took the 7:30 am flight which had to transfer in Chicago. We arrived to Chicago on time with no problems. However, once we got to Chicago our flight got delayed. The plane had a mechanical problem- sounded scary, but we were glad that they found the problem while we were still on the ground.

    At first the flight was supposed to only be delayed a couple of hours, but a couple of hours turned into seven hours. Thankfully there were six of us together at the airport. We were able to pass the time getting to know each other, sharing some laughs and exploring the airport.

      Seven hours later we finally got on the plane to Albuquerque. The view
from the plane over New Mexico was incredible. The beautiful red desert terrain made it seem like we were flying over another planet. After a long day of traveling we finally made it to Navajo Nation, super excited for the week ahead!
