Monster jam!!

Such an adventure!!! For Christmas we face our kids and the cousins to go see the Monster Jam in Jacksonville, FL, and today was the day. We left ormond beach and with warm sunny weather and it didn't even cross my mind that the weather would be bad…

While driving up to Jax we hit one storm and while we were there visiting with Aunt Jackie the storm kept going and it rained A LOT! While driving to the stadium there was lightning as well and once inside the stadium we realized the event was postponed while waiting for the weather to improve. All the people was waiting in the areas behind the … and let me say it was crowded. It made me think of a refugee camp or when disaster hits and people escape to the near by stadium. The monster jam started two hours late, at 9pm. It was still raining quite a bit but no thunder or lightning.

Getting info that we would soon get to go in and find out seats :-) (Rafael did not get into the picture unfortunately)

I took pictures during breaks in the rain. 

Yes, we were all soaking wet!

We ended up having a great time and it was a fun adventure despite the rain and cold (cold for Florida).
