2010 Honduras Mission Journey - Day 1, July 10th



Day 1 - Saturday, July 10,2010

We arrived at the church at the lovely hour of 4:00am. Our drive and flights were uneventful, which we appreciated. Everyone was just excited to get to Honduras. The landing at the Tegucigalpa airport was very exciting. We flew so low to the ground that we could see the white teeth of those on the ground smiling up at us. (Hopefully the photos or video show the true experience.) The pilot did an excellent job. Yea American Airlines!

We made it through customs counting 28 suitcases, 14 carry-ons, 14 backpacks and 14 people. We boarded the school bus full of anticipation for our trek to Juticalpa, where we spent the night. We are fortunate enough to already know some of the members of the other team traveling with us. They are from Steven's Creek church in Georgia and they were the other team on the ranch with us in 2008.

Our evening meal was wonderful and consisted of chicken, mashed potatoes, veggies and tortillas. The team newbies were very happy. We went to bed exhausted and happy to be in Honduras.
