February 2, 2013

¡Buen viaje! After uncountable hours of planning, paperwork, shopping, packing, and re-packing, TTS21 is finally on its way!

Yesterday pulsed with anticipation and excitement as girls arrived in Houston throughout the day from all over the country. The girls have been introduced to each other via Facebook and were eager to meet in person their fellow classmates and travelers for the semester ahead. The teachers were just as excited as the girls to meet all the students of TTS21 for whom they have spent many hours planning.
At the hotel, girls who arrived earlier in the day greeted girls arriving on later flights and helped them out with hints on how to somehow squeeze all those textbooks into already overflowing packs. After reorganizing and repacking packs one more time, TTS21 met for our first dinner together. Over Texas barbeque, the students, parents, and teachers got to know a little bit about each other and watched a slideshow to preview the adventure ahead of us.   
This morning the group is full of excitement and nervous energy as we set off on our semester in Central America. The photo below is our group ready to head to the airport to start our travels. To our family, friends, and pets in the USA, TTS21 says: ¡Les extrañaremos! (We will miss you!)

Ready? Set. Go!
