We're here!!

We arrived at around 1:30am your time.  All went well-we have all of the luggage and the people who work here are overwhelmed with the generosity of everyone!  There are so many bags full of donations for the families that they don't fit in our modest room.  What we are excited about is that we have INTERNET!!  I am sitting comfortably on my bed typing this. I look forward to keeping you all updated and I will try to drag some kids in to write some stuff too.  :-) 

The kids are on their way to their host families with the very nice tour guides. I am impressed with how much Spanish they are speaking to us....perhaps some of them will come home fluent! We are meeting tomorrow morning at 9 am to talk about the itinerary and customs here, etc.  Should be fun....pool time will be following. 

Buenas noches for now!
