Hola de Mexico,
I would write all in Spanish but I only know a few people who would appreciate that!
I am happy to report that we did not have 62 hours of travel. We had a couple of delays to de ice the plane and also in Cancun we had to wait for our gate! So we arrived one or two hours late. Then we went straight to a four hour bus trip to Merida. Our first meal in Mexico was at Burger King, a great Mexican meal!
After the four hour bus trip I met my family. My mama is very helpful! She helped heat the water for the shower and showed me how to use the buses and is very helpful with my spanish which is grammatically horrible! I am very thankful for her! I have three siblings here. Benji is 15 but is turning 16 next week. Arturo is 12, (sorry I completely lied in an email and earlier in this blog! And Valeria is 4. This is a new experience for me having younger siblings especially brothers! They are very nice and kind of shy, but as am I at this point in time. I listen much more than I speak, but it is amazing how quickly the spanish comes back.
It will probably take a long time for me to become completely comfortable speaking spanish. I say a lot of Si and No and no entiendo! But i have had some good conversations with my Mama and am currently talking with valeria. She is doing the hiding trick where I have to go sit on her in order to find her. It is very similar to what I do with Sam!
The food here so far has been wonderful I would not recommend it to picky eaters (Dave)!
That is all for now!
Te quiero

buen suerte mi amor!
yay. im glad to hear that you trip was not 62 hours--that would have been sad! it sounds like it will be fun to have a little sister like valeria--lots of fun to play with!
Yay, I'm glad I can comment now! Thanks for changing that, I really did not feel like making an account! I'm glad to hear that you got there safely and everything is going well! Question: do we still send mail to the first address or to the one where you live? I don't really remember my family getting any mail or even having a mailbox, but I thought I would make sure!
PS, I'm so jealous of your delicious food!
PPS, the time change must be three hours, because it says 10:03 but it is really 1:03. You probably knew that already... so... adios!
