Back in Chile...

I have arrived! Praise the Lord for the safety He gave! All of the flights went smoothly and there were no difficulties whatsoever. The Lord even provided a little Chilean company for part of the way. Just as the flight from Denver was getting ready to land in Dallas, I discovered that the lady seated next to me was also heading to Chile and we would be on the same flight. So we chatted for a while and waited together during the layover in Dallas.

The airport here in Santiago was pretty busy this morning, but the workers were very efficient. I had my luggage and was through customs in no time at all.

Immediately upon arriving here at the school (a little before 11) I tossed my bags in my room, put on a clean shirt, and ran to catch the end of the teachers meeting. It turns out that they really hadn't gotten very far and I hadn't missed much. The meetings ended up lasting until almost 4. It really wasn't until about 3:30 that I started to feel pretty tired from the long trip and lack of sleep.

After the meetings ended Kelly and I spent a good amount of time catching up from the break. She also went with me to the grocery store to stock up on some items that I needed.

So now, here I sit... on my bed in my apartment... with my windows open and the fan blowing. Such a contrast from when I left my house yesterday morning and it was snowing! It is nice to be able to wear flip flops again!
