Pre-Departure

I began packing several days before leaving but did not anticipate it to take as much effort from me as it required.  With strict weight requirements (1 checked=44 lbs+1 carry-on=22lbs=66lbs), I had to decide what to bring and leave.

 I woke up early to drive to Madison's house to say goodbye but she surprised me with breakfast at my door!  Finished backing later. I emailed my host family while waiting to board my flight to Miami. Time to go. Hasta luego.
