Alright, so I made it to Texas! Strange airport...I think there's about 650 fast food restaurants in this place, and they have vending machines that serve hamburgers....weird. The flight from Edmonton was okay, my dad and I were up and at em at 3:00 A.M and everything went smoothly on that end. I didn't sleep much on the plane, but then again I never do. Another weird thing about Texas...FOX NEWS IS EVERYWHERE. Most of the magazine stores are "Fox News" stores.... yeah no thanks.... then again I'm pretty sure this airport is named after George W. Bush.........so I should not be all that surprised. Enough complaining though! I had lunch at a seafood place, forget the name...it was good, wasn't quite as good as Nova Scotia seafood but then again what is?
Currently just sitting at my gate, bought a couple hours of WIFI so I should be entertained for the next little bit. I was able to Skype with my mom for a bit, she's holding up better than I am so far. Pretty nervous! Tried to find somewhere that would have Boliviano's (Bolivian Currency) but no such luck. En route to Bogota pretty soon, I'm excited to see what that airport is going to look like! Bought a few bottles of water and some granola bars to hold me over in case I can't communicate well enough to order a sandwich in Española once I arrive. That's it for now, will try to post once I arrive in Columbia!
Hi sweetheart! Am hoping I can figure out this blogging thing, and be able to correspond with you.
ReplyDeleteYou guys have the techy bug....not so for your old Auntie. You have been in my thoughts and prayers all day long, and I can hardly wait to read all about it.
WOOOOOOHOOOO! I think I've done it! No, your Aunt is not going to try brain surgery, but am so happy to be able to be part of this wonderful adventure sweetheart.
ReplyDeleteLove you to the moon and back, and wish you the best time ever. Just flash that smile of your, and you will do great. Love you. xoxo
Your Mom tells me you are in Le Paz now - so excited for you and a bit envious because I never got to travel to any of these awesome places! Glad you are spreading your wings and I know you will absolutely love it once you become adjusted. Bet you will be speaking espanola before long too! Hugs!
