Hey Guys!
So I'm finally back in Honduras after a much anticipated trip. It seems like a never left, I love it!! So lets start with the beginning of this adventure.
Well we went to the airport and were checking our bags when the clerk today us you could only have 2 checked bags each, well we had 7 totally. My and I were like oh my gosh, they told us we could have up to 8! So the clerks started checking and they told us we could take them. We had known we would have to pay about $400 for all of the extra luggage, but they didn't charge us! I couldn't believe that! Needless to say that started everything off amazingly! Next we were a little worried after we flew into Honduras if we would have one of the drivers we had last time but we didn't. But it worked out once again amazingly because Luis is great and we love him.
After he picked us up we went to the hotel and then to the orphanage. I was a little nervous wondering if the kids would recognize/remember me or not. So we got out of the van and started walking up to the orphanage (it was dark out, it was about 8 o'clock) and all of a sudden I hear LA MUNECA, LA MUNECA! It was Henry and soon followed by all the other kids. We went inside the gate and they all swarmed me like bees to honey. Each of them yelling LA MUNECA and fighting their way to give me a hug and a kiss. The were all dancing around kind of like ring around the rosie, it was so cute and I almost started crying.
Then we went back to the hotel and I hung out in the lobby while mom was using the computer. While I was sitting there a guy came in and asked if I had been here last year and I said yes. Then he said he remembered me and I told him I remembered him from before too. Earlier that day too the clerk Linder at the hotel said he remembered me as well. And we went to Wendy's too and they workers there remembered me too lol. So that was Sunday.
Monday we went to the orphanage and they were going on a picnik so we went with and it was tons of fun! Then we just hung out at the hotel and with Luis. So thats it for now, continue reading for more adventures of la muneca. I will try to post as much as possible.
love xoxo,
Muneca!

Brought tears to my eyes. Yay, I'm so happy I can read whats going on! I am just overflowing with joy right now with all of the blessings you have had just in the first few days of your trip. God is good all the time, huh! Can't wait to hear more updates.
I bet you've missed that name and the sound of all the kids yelling it. I'm not surprised that Henry was the first one out there to greet you. Of course everyone remembers you. You have the type of personality that makes everyone feel like they are one of your friends...which really is true. I bet they are all so excited to see you, and i don't just mean the kids I mean everyone that remembers you. Keep showing love to everyone you meet and being a friend to all of them because you may just be the friend they really need right now. Thanks for putting a smile on my face and sharing you're experiences so far. I look forward to hearing more. love you!
