I am Finally Here at the Orphanage. My Flight left this morning at 6:40 and I traveled all day. I rode to the orphanage on a bus with lots of people. It is very intimidating being in a country where you don't speak the language. I will be doing my best to learn it though. We didn't know whether or not there was a rainy season, but I will go ahead and say that there is. It rained the whole way home from the airport, and will continue to rain till Dec. (we need a rainy season) Honduras is not what I had envisioned in my head. There are chickens and dogs running around loose. I don't think that the people like me, they are looking at me weird. I have not met any of the children at Emmanuel, but I am staying with a house full of girls. I know that in the end this is going to be a great trip, but having to leave my family and David for 6 months was really hard for me. I really appreciate all the support and hope that you will continue that God will give me peace and use what he has given me to it's fullest. Please keep me in your prayers.
God Bless!

Lindsey, Atleast you will not have to worry about sunburn if it raining all the time :) I am glad you made it safely. I am pretty sure that most people like you but you have not given them much time to get to know you. Nana was very excited to get to "talk" to you yesterday. She is soo funny. Conner's musical last night was so good. We love you and are praying for you. I shared your blog with Molly and Robby (my friends you met at the beach). I know each day wil get better and better!
I love you, Trace
