Made it! After getting to know the Dallas airport a bit and having a good meal at a Mexican restaurant I met up with 13 others from around the U.S. who are on the Compassion trip as well. We were all on the same flight from Dallas to Guatemala City. We arrived just a bit late and all made it through customs ok.
The local Compassion staff was there to meet us with a small bus and took us to the hotel. It was fun to hear some of the people in the group (especially some of the kids - there are 3) get excited when they saw a Burger King and a McDonalds. Nothing like a little bit of home. Then they saw the Porche dealer. Only two cars in the showroom that I could see as we drove by.
They had bottled water waiting for us so we're set! We've been warned - "Don't forget - used bottled water when you brush your teeth." I'll try to remember...
Looking forward to traveling again tomorrow morning then seeing our first Compassion project in the afternoon.
