Arrival and First Day!

I left Minneapolis yesterday, Sunday June 5. My flight left at 3pm and I arrived in San Diego at 4:45. When I got to San Diego, I had to wait almost 30 minutes to get picked up by YWAM. I met a girl from Cambridge, MN on my van and she flew in hours before me. I thought it was really nice that another person was there from Minnesota. I also had the opportunity right away to meet a guy from Guatamela. The driver I met last August, so it was a pleasure to have him again. We went to IN-N-Out Burger to eat dinner while we waited for two more students to arrive from Northern California. After we all arrived, we drove down to Ensenada, Mexico! It was a fun ride and a great time to get to know eachother. 


Today we had some basic training and getting to know each other. We cleaned during the day and had training in the morning. Today I cleaned the rooms, swept, pulled weeds and picked up trash. Tonight I went out into town with some friends to celebrate and have a fun first night. I love being in the sun and so I am happy to say that I already have a tan line and a little sun on my face! My roommate is named Rachel and she is from Modesdo California. We have a room together and then four other girls are in the other room in our apartment. I already knew one of the other girls in our apartment from last summer which was nice. There are more people here on staff that I have met before, which is a pleasure knowing people when you come down. Well, I hope you enjoyed reading this and will write another one in a day or two, thanks!


P.S- This is my first blog ever, so I hope it is decent!
