Wow! I am learning a lot already. The first thing I have learned is that the Internet doesn't work very well down here, especially in our hotel room! We had to be up at 5 am and on the road by 5:45. It was hard to say goodbye to the stalwarts that took us to the airport! ( actually it was really hard to say goodbye to everyone) We were 40 min. late leaving on the plane. I hope the other couple that was traveling with us to Houston and then on to Trinidad made their flight! Stressful!! Any who, we made it to Mexico at 4:40 Saturday afternoon. We even made it through customs without any trouble. Bro. & Sis. Olsen were right there to pick us up. They are the nicest people! They brought us to our home here at the hotel. We just threw all of our stuff inside the door and went to get something to eat. We ate spaghetti and ravioli (Mexican style) at Vips just up the street!!! They then took us to a grocery store to buy some food for the first few days!!! I felt right at home (except for the smells) with the english Christmas songs playing overhead!--Walking in a winter wonderland! We don't have an oven yet in our place so we couldn't get anything to bake! There is no way to BBQ so microwave and stove top is the way!! We made it back home - barely and tried to get organized and put stuff away. I finally gave up and dropped into bed! I only woke up twice with panic attacks that I wouldn't see my kids for a long time!!! I hope they go away soon! So here are some pics from our travels. By the way - this particular blog has taken me two days to accomplish due to a dumb Internet! Adios Amigos!
So dumb me can't figure out how to put the pics in the order I want them in! If anyone - like Angie, Rachel, Laurel, Rhonda or anyone else can tell me how to do this I would really appreciate that!

This is suppose to be the last pic cause I took it out the
airplane window with the caption to be -
a long road ahead!!!!! |
 |
We made it with 50 lbs in all four bags, plus stuff jammed
in our backpacks! You would think we are going to be
gone for years! |
Anyway, you get the idea that this has been a long time coming and I am glad that we can finally start putting countdown dots on the calendar!
I think as long as you describe the picture it doesn't really matter what order you put them in. If I remember correctly, you can drag and drop them in the order you want while you are typing your post. Try it and see.
