Well, I'm off.... After getting all of our luggage together and having a brief meeting, we loaded the bus with the medical and eyeglass items needed. In addition, we loaded our own individual luggage as well.
On the bus, I'm sitting with a retired Dentist named George. This is the eighth year for George to go to Honduras with Pro Papa. If I had to guess, George is in his 70's. It's rather dark in the bus right now. We will be stopping in Bedford to pick up a few more people.
Jennifer was one of the people that we picked up. She sat next to me on the bus. She's a very nice young lady about 25 years old. She'll be on the Dental Crew.
We are now all waiting in line at Baltimore airport waiting for the Continental Airlines. We have many good workers as we unloaded the bus; it was done in no time at all.
As we are arriving into San Pedro Sala, I have an awful ear ache. I'm writing to try to help me keep my mind off of it. I'm sitting with Steve from our Habitat group and one empty seat. That's good because I like lots of room.
I forgot to mention that when I was riding on the bus with Jennifer, she told me that her mom died from breast cancer at only 55 years old. She tries to do the Walk for Life in honor of her mom every year.
We've been hanging out at the airport for a few hours trying to get stuff straightened out. It reminds me of when I was visiting the Bahamas.... No hurry! I still can't hear out of my right ear.
It's very muggy here today. The temps were in the 80's when we arrived but now I'd guess that it is close to 90. Having long pants doesn't help that much either. I can't wait to change clothes and brush my teeth.
I'm beginning to yawn and now I remember why. I woke up yesterday at 6:00 a.m. and have only 'cat-napped' about 10 minutes here and there. My eyes are burning and I wish I could take a quick nap. We'll, were off!! |
