Day 1--Traveling to Honduras

Talk about a long day. We flew from Medford to San Francisco then to LAX. Then at 2 am we boarded Taca Airlines and headed to El Salvadore. TACA was pretty cool... roomy, great service, no extra little charges, and efficient.

So, we hung out in El Salvadore for about an hour then boarded out plane and landed in Tegucigalpa shortly after 8 am. We were met by the GMB staff and driven to our home away from home. It was once a Honduran Presidential Retreat.

It was pretty cool there with the exception of this one really rude goose whom you didn't dare make eye contact with or he'd try to take you down. Anyway, after we arrived at the palace/retreat the five of us (older adult medical providers) were escorted to our room. Notice I said "room", complete with 3 sets of bunk beds. Talk about a kick, it was like being kids again. We laid in our bunks and giggled like little kids. However, it was great fun and everyone got along well.
