We Made It!

We made it to Mexico about 12:30 today. The trip went so smoothly; thank you for your prayers. Melissa met us at the airport. She works at the orphanage. We got to our apartment and it is great! Above us is an American lady, Donna, who is married to a national. They have three young children. They have been wonderful- they fed us lunch and dinner. Her husband took us to Sam's (yes they have a Sam's) and the grocery store. We got to go down the street and get a tour of the orphanage and meet the children. It was really fun. They were so sweet and giggly trying to learn Ben and Meg's name. I'm sure they were laughing at our English accents, too. It is hard not knowing Spanish but we hope to pick up as we go. Sorry I don't have any pictures to post yet. We are pretty worn out. The hardest thing to get used to is the heat. But thankfully our bedrooms have air conditioning. We can sleep!! Good night and we will be in touch soon!

love,
Sara Parks
