FRIDAY - MAY 29

I am blogging about the beginning of our great experience of traveling out of the county, but before we could do that we had to go through the exhausting experience of the actual travel. First we all met up at the Greenville-Weston High School to load up and headed to Memphis, Tennessee Airport. We then flew from Memphis to Miami on A VERY small plane. This was my actual first flight and I was kind of scared and nervous. I was actually so nervous that I held one of my chaperone's held my hand to keep me from overacting. After the plane landed and I actually started breathing normally again we went to the crazy and very crowd Miami airport. There we got to communicate with different Spanish speaking people as we waited for our last flight. This airplane was much bigger and more comfortable than the first one, but I still was a little bit afraid. Once we landed in San Pedro we got everything and went through customs where we experienced one of our first power outage while in Honduras. We then traveled by van from San Pedro to Copan. We then met our host families and got settled in. The thing that I enjoyed about this busy day was that we all got a better chance to know each other. I learned that if you conquer your fears, it will always work out for the best. My favorite part of the trip so far is being able to see my trip members daily for the next week and just enjoying each other company.

That sounds like a great first flight to me. There are plenty of people in the world who get nervous every time they fly - and I love what you learned about it, that there is something after conquering the fear, oh yea!
