the nitty gritty

Three flights, 23 hours of travel, 7 cups of coffee, and no sleep later....

I made it! The trip was stressful but I met some stellar people along the way who went way out of their way to help me out. Kind people are my favorite.

Internet connection is spotty so I'll keep this brief:
I am living in a hotel on a marine base with all the camp A counselors for all the bases except one.
I have my own room. It's lovely.
The people are incredible.
Jet lag sucks.
Its beautiful here, but rains more than I expected.
There are four other counselors at my site and 28 kids.
We have code names and our camp's theme is insects. We have Miss Spider, Miss Dragonfly, Miss Ladybug, and Miss Butterfly. Yours truly is Miss Honeybee. (awwwwwww.)
Camp starts next week, this week is all training.
I'm terrible at figuring what time it is back in the states, so I might accidentally call at 2am your time thinking I am calling at 2 pm. (Sorry mom, dad, and Kelsey!)

Right now we are still trying to get settled so my schedule is wonky and I'm tired all the time. I'll update later and hopefully provide photo documentation and much more witty and insightful comments. But it might be a bit so don't hold your breath.

Much love to all! I would insert some Japanese here, but I'm dreadful so give me a few weeks.
