Well, around 12:30 am we all left for BWI, with Kyle's mom and dad taking turns driving us all in the church bus. Thankfully, it wasn't too bad getting our papers and our bags checked there, once the counters opened. When flight #1 landed in Houston, we had even longer than planned because our flight was delayed twice, but then all of a sudden they upped it again so we had to collect everyone that was out and about.
When we arrived in Guatemala City, the pilot did the smoothest landing I have ever felt there (what with the shorter runway in a city surrounded by mountains)! Getting out went fine, but then the 26 of us left had to wait forever until the three guys came back with our three vans. Finally they arrived, and we made a lunch stop at Burger King as usual.
Traffic heading to San Lucas was pretty bad, but finally....we were back!! As usual, for those of us who had been there before, it felt like we had never left. Julio came out to greet us and we got situated in our rooms - I shared a room with Miranda and Kristen. We had a group meeting and chilled until the cooks had our supper ready (and it was delicious and very filling as usual!).
After supper a few of the adults went for groceries and Kristen, Kyle and I worked through three skits with the youth (and a couple adults) until they could do them perfectly. And they never got tired and stopped trying - they were awesome. When everyone returned, with Jodi, we showed them the skits and discussed the next day.
