Travel Day

Right now I am currently sitting outside on the porch of the third floor of our hotel. It is so nice outside. Heather. Jordan and Samantha are all sitting out here as well. It has been a long day of traveling starting at 4 this morning. 

We got to the airport around 5 and and easily checked in and went to the gate. Elizabeth, Jordan and I were all super tired and fell asleep once we got on the plane. We then arrived to Dallas and had around a 4 hour lay-over before the next flight. For our own entertainment, we rode the skylink (train that takes you around the airport to the different terminals) all the way around the airport. In case anyone is ever there, you can get from one side of the airport to the other in less than 20 minutes. 

Upon arriving in Belize we waiting a very long line in Immigration and customs. Then we had to board our teeny tiny plane to San Pedro. I was very nervous about this flight, but it ended up being super cool. We flew over the water and saw all the little islands. The people waiting for us at the other end of the flight were so friendly and asking "are you guys the teachers?" Everyone knows that we are coming and everyone will know we are the teachers after about a week of being here. 

We got to where we were staying and everyone greeted us. We brought our stuff to our room and immediatly changed and went to check out the bike we will be using for the weeks we are here. Then we joined everyone in the pizza pub and enjoyed some pizza and social time. We all came back early around 8:30 (10:30 NC time) and are all now just hanging out and unpackng and getting ready for tomorrow. 

Tomorrow we are going to be getting and meeting everyone at 9 to go to breakfast together. Then we will be touring the island. We will then have the rest of the day to enjoy and relaz. I am really excited to see what the next few days will bring!

I also have every intention of including pictures with blog posts, but that all depends on how the computer and internet want to cooperate since I can't upload pictures from a camera to my ipad.
