The majority of today was spent traveling. We left Granada at 5:00 am and didn't arrive in San Jose until about 5:00pm. While 12 hours seems like a long time in the bus, it went pretty fast and we took a couple of pit stops. I slept most of the way and had fun playing 10 fingers with some of the other students on my bus.
When I got back to San Jose, I had two packages and a card waiting for me in my mailbox! It was so exciting! Riding the bus from LASP to my host family's house felt really weird, almost like I was going home, and it made me think about how weird it is going to be to leave here. I'm already about halfway there, and I can't believe how much I've learned and I can hardly contain my excitement for what's left of the semester.
I was really grateful that I had slept so much on the way back so that I could do a good job of filling my host family in on my trip and spend a few hours playing cards and other silly games with Melany. I was so exhausted by 8:30 that I was grateful it was almost bedtime for the kids. I sort of unpacked my stuff and went through my pictures from the trip (they should be uploaded to FB soon!) and then crashed, still trying to process everything and taking comfort in knowing that we serve an incredible God and that He has every little detail of my life and of the lives of everyone else in the world planned out perfectly.
