First Day

Well today started out a little rough to say the least. We left Tammy's house at midnight like scheduled and made our way to Chicago. After a very cooolllddd bus ride, we unloaded and headed into the Ohare national airport. We were one of the first people in line and because we are such lucky people, ended up with probably the least thrilled attendant to help us get our boarding passes. We boarded at 5:30 a.m and sat on the plane in anticipation of take off. Well take off didn't happen for 3 hours! We almost got out at 6:30 like we were supposed to but it just so happens that there was maintenance problems so we left 2 hours later than expected. With that delay our whole day was pushed back a bit. Robert, our driver, picked us up from the airport and from there we went to the school we will be working at tomorrow. We went over what colors they wanted to paint the two rooms of the school. I couldn't believe that they have 50 kids that fit in those buildings! I'll have to put up pictures later so you can see. It was too late to get paint supplies when we were done so we checked into our hotel and ate an excellent dinner they prepared for us. Now I'm sittin by the beach writing my blog and realizing how wiped I am from the entire day. I think it's time for bed. Goodnight all
