Here Finally!

I am trying to figure out how do do all of this because the internet is in spanish. great. and the shift bar is on the wrong side and so i am not going to capitalize anything. just warning you.
i got on the plain tuesday morining and arrived in atlanta and go to baggage claim. i get one of my two bags and stand there for 15 min as i watch the same baby seat go around the luggage thing multiple times. as i am about to have a mild heart attack because the bag with all of my clothes is no where to be seen i see the bag come onto the conveyor belt. so now the catch is to find mtw at the meeting place. great. this means i have to follow directions and we all know how great i am at that. i have never gotten lost in an airport (which is kind of impossible for most people) but i am not most people. but all went well and i found my destination .
prefield was for all the interns going to the field this summer. we drove to north carolina to have training/bonding time. i met a few people that know my friends and actually someone i knew. its such a small world. prefield was for two days and it was fun but i was itching tobe in acapulco. friday we got up at the crack of dawn (4 am) and drove back to the atlanta airport and my team went strait to check in. after many confusing signs and turn arounds we got to the delta international flights check in. our flight to mexico city went well but finding our way through the mexico city airport was quite interesting. talk about confusing! atlanta had nothing on the mexico city airport. the confusingness (i know its not a word) coupled with the fact that we don{t speak spanish made it a little difficult to figure out wehre to get our connecting flight. but we had 3 hrs. so it was ok. after an hour flight we were finally in acapulco! as i stepped foot off the plain that familiar rush of heat and the smell of the acapulco airport greeted me. i just had to smile. i am back with the people and city that i love.
