Getting Settled

Shelly and I arrived safely in Honduras yesterday but something happened which has never happened in my 12 years of traveling here. We flew into the runway backwards. Usually there is only one direction down a runway, but not in Honduras. Many are accustomed to the hairpin turn around the mountains in order to land in Honduras. This time we fly in over the cliff at the end of the runway and landed going the wrong way. It was much easier. It was a straight shot from the air so that made the landing a little less stressful. Those who have been here will appreciate that.

We have spent the day organizing our office. Shelly and I share an office which makes for a lot of adjustment. It is also about half the size of my old office at BC so you can imagine how close we are. It is just another adjustment amongst so many others. We cleaned our apartment last night and went to bed at 8:45 pm. It was so good to get to bed early. We loved being home but sleep was not one of our priorities while there. When the sun goes down here, it is bedtime. We seem to be adjusting to that well. We will be back at it tomorrow, organizing and planning. There is so much to do it is difficult to know where to start. By the way, out container with all our personal items has not arrived here yet. It is in Honduras but stuck in customs. They take their time here. We hope to get it on Monday. This is going on 11 weeks living out of suitcases. We will live though.

Adios.
