insurance claim update and making new friends

My insurance claim turned out so much better than I could have hoped for. If you don’t know what I’m talking about, check out this post here

End Result:

  • Allianz paid out $375 for our hotel and food expenses, which were already covered by AA, and clearly showed on the receipts I submitted, as well.
  • Allianz also paid out $666.XX for travel expenses. Say what?
  • AA gave us $175 vouchers PER person for the delay. Since we only paid 12.5k AA miles per person plus about $5.00 in taxes and fees to get here, I’d say $175 was a more than adequate comp.

Of course, I’m sad I didn’t push harder. They would have covered up to like $475 per person per day or something, but I chickened out! Oh well. Hopefully I’ll get another delay soon. 😉

On this specific day, I met up with a friend’s sister, who was like the most amazing person I have ever met and is doing so much great work here in Guatemala helping those displaced by the volcano. You can checkout her work here and here . We spent the morning roaming around Antigua, eating ice cream, checking out ruins and all that fun stuff.

While we were at the Central Park, a bunch of young teenagers came up to us and asked if the could take pictures with my kids. It was pretty hilarious and everyone had a good laugh, as you can see above.
