We left early this morning, 4:30, for the Ft. Lauderdale Airport in dense fog and found the airport shut down. Luckily, we departed on time, but en-route the captain announced that the airport in Nassau was closed down because of fog, however we did land! Interestingly there was a couple on our flight we knew from Marathon. We are on the ship now and it is beautiful and our room is the best we have ever had on a ship. We have already met some interesting people. Tonight there was a reception for the parents of the students who will board tomorrow. Judging from many discussions we are so grateful for the opportunity to embark on this adventure and equally excited to see the metamorphosis of the students as we learn about and engage with different cultures around the world.
Tomorrow we plan to head into town to and get some groceries for the trip. We leave for Dominica at 5:00 p.m.
Still unpacking, catch you tomorrow.
