Monday - March 8, 2010

WE’RE IN MIAMI! But…it took us ALL day to get here! After a short wait in the tiniest airport on Earth, we boarded the Allegiant plane to Orlando for a rocky flight that lasted just over an hour. We claimed our bags and got our rental vans/car. Inexperienced Florida drivers braved the unfamiliar highways (and countless tolls), all the while being harassed by hungry girls, craving nothing but Wendy’s. Four hours and a million wrong turns later (and after hitting a couple posts in the middle of the road- thank goodness they were rubber), we finally reached our destination and checked into our hotel. Pleasantly surprised by the balconies, personal kitchens, and beds for each girl, we explored the hotel and enjoyed the 70 degree weather before making lunch and going to bed! We’re excited to begin our work tomorrow and experience the culture of Miami! We hope to gain a better appreciation for our own environment, in addition to opening our perspectives to other lifestyles and needs.
