I'm here!

So, I made it!

I arrived on Sunday night around 11 in Cueravaca after...

- a plane that was delayed 2.5 hrs which led to...

- a really long layover in the lovely terminal 5

- a 4 hr plane ride with no movie!

- lots of airline people that thought if they repeated themselves and yelled louder that you would know what they meant... in both languages!

- a restaurant/meeting place in the airport with a new name

- a very lost, non-Spanish-speaking Swiss boy that my driver kindly brought back to Cuernavaca which resulted in...

- an hour-ish bus ride of translating for my new Swiss friend (Ben?) even though the driver Ismanuel knew some English but spoke only in Spanish be because he liked that I could understand him :p

I got about 7 hrs of sleep after a very long and tiring day of travel and yesterday I...

- had class at 8AM with the best teacher Rosario

- met new friends Ben y Taylor who had Rosario for their last class and are very jealous. They will be here for only a couple more weeks... but they will leave around the same time the rest of the group will arrive. Don't worry... I'm not lonely here. :)

- ate lunch in a small restaurant near our houses with Cristina and one of the other staff (I can't think of her name)

- went to "el centro" or downtown by myself in the afternoon... to start get to know the area and just see what was there

- saw the cascada (waterfall) with Cristina the Intern who is one of the few people that is already here

- went to dinner with Cristina and Mike (the Social Work prof from Augsburg) at a restaurant downtown

- and moved rooms about 3 times...

Today hasn't been to eventful so far... I went to class and had a meeting with Stephanie who is in charge of the internship stuff. I should be starting that at the end of the week I think.

Well, that's all for now...
