Finally here!

I am here and safe. My flight into Tegucigalpa arrived 2 hours late due to airplane maintence. I arrived safe and sounds with all my suitcases of 70 pounds! Overweight bag! Go figure! I am really excited to be here. First night here, I got to unpack and begin to settle. I am living with one other girl who is the same age as me and it is also her first year of teaching. It is a good thing. We will go through similar things at least! I will post pictures of the apartment soon! I want us to settle in more before pictures. We have one bathroom and each have our own bedroom. A living area and kitchen finish off the apartment. It is going to be fun. We've done some orientation things and talking about how to adjust to a new living situations and culture. We also got to tour the school and get a better feel of how classroom stuff will be. I will post pictures of my classroom too when I get them taken. There isn't a huge time change which is nice. It is tiring trying to get settled and figure everything out. Tomorrow (Saturday) we are going into the city to shop and get house ware stuff and groceries. It will be fun. This way I can decorate and make my apartment feel more like home that way! Right now, things are going very well. I am excited to begin putting my classroom together and start to work on the actually teaching stuff. I'll right more later! I'm here safe and sound!
