Yay we´ve made it to Tegucigalpa, the capital of Honduras! We all woke up super early this morning because of the time difference here - 5am Miami time is 10am UK time. After a mammoth amount of rainfall that woke Emma up last night, we set off again at quarter to 8 in the already sweltering humidity for breakfast in the hostel before getting a taxi to the airport. Surprisingly we had no more hiccups at all, and the flight (althought a bit bumpy) was fine too and we even had all our bags waiting for us at the airport! Amazing. 1 litre of Febreeze has managed to spill all over our resource bag during the flight, but luckily nothing is too worse for wear and everything just smells nice now! Marisol, the International comissioner for the Guias de Honduras (Guides in Honduras) met us in Tegucigalpa and we drove to the hotel where we will be based at for our workshops in the area. Marisol is really nice and we´re sure she´ll look after us well here :) This afternoon we are going to a welcoming ceremony from the Guias here, where we´re not sure what to expect but hope that we´ll get to meet a lot of people who are involved in Guiding over here. We´re all so SO glad to finally have made it here, after 2 years of hard work and many many changes along the way, we managed to arrive! :)
So pleased you have made it at last to Honduras. I am sure you will be a credit to Girlguiding UK especially as your resources will all smell so lovely!Hope all the little packets arrived safely as well without causing concern with customs.Our front room looks much less like a bomb site now. Love and best wishes to you all
