The Last Two Days...

Aug 18th
Well the end draws near as we pack up and head to the main office in the orphanage. There we met up with Katja and Max who agreed to take us to the capital. While going there one of their boys got sick in the car. So I gave him my dramamine that I had in my pouch (I did keep two though). We got to the capital and grabbed a taxi to the Hedman Alas bus station that was to take us to San Pedro Sula. The ride back seemed a lot faster than the ride to. Also on the ride at one point the bus slowed down to a complete stop. I feared that a road block was up but then I noticed something strange. There were many people walking past the outside of the bus with large liter and a half pepsi bottles. We got closer and I then saw the cause of the pepsi-bottle-carrying people and the halting of the ride. A pepsi truck had flipped over in the middle of the road! People were raiding the truck and traffic had completely went to 1km per hour (they use metric remember). That was interesting. Oh two more things I forgot to mention about the orphanage. One is that the milk we drank came in a box and had an opening like the Morton Salt Containers. Two is that since the milk sat on a shelf they have to zap it with chemical so it doesn't get chunky like up here, the chemicals extends the preservation of the milk. The preservation of this milk was extended to Jan. 14th of 2009. Chew on that one for a second. Anyway, we got to San Pedro and Luis picked us up again as we were going to stay there again. He took us to the hotel and said there would be a cyber café just down the block. So we went there and that's where I typed up the preceding Master Blog. Then we came back and I stayed behind to finish it up the blogging while Jen and Mom went to the mall to go shopping. When they got back we went to the Chicken Taco place that we went to on our way down. Tasty. Then we came back watched some tv. We watched the movie where the author means to kill a character in her book named Harold Crick who is really alive (if you know the movie comment it). After that we went to bed.

The last blog...
Aug 19th
Today's the day! The sun is shining, the tank is clean, and we are getting out of... >gasp< the tank is clean! Sorry again (Finding Nemo quote). But today we are going home! Yeah right. We'll get to that later. We got packed up for the last time and went down to breakfast. Beans, eggs, toast, juice (no coffee). After this we went to a store to buy snacks cheaper than what the airport would have. Believe it or not the store was just down the block. Everything is just down the block. We got back and Luis took us to the airport and said our goodbyes. We went through security (nicer than O'Hare) and then waited for the plane. Since I had to chug my juice I bought another in the airport among other things. Then came time to board the plane. Now this is bogus. There was security right before you boarded the plane who wouldn't let me take the juice that I bought in the airport and so he pitched it. I coundn't even chug it! Bogus. So we got on the plane and took off. At the end of the flight mom wanted to get off the plane ASAP because we had to go through customs and we only had a one hour layover. The lady who was supposed to be helping people said visas need to step up in line. About 15 minutes later a guy a few people in front of us asked the lady if there was some way he could step up in line because he had a 4:20 flight to catch. The lady basically told him off saying that he might catch his flight or he might not. We had a 3:55 flight to catch. It was 3:35 at the time. We still had half a line to go. Odds were against us. Then, (this was just stupid) the lady asked, at 3:50 if there was anyone going to O'Hare. We spoke up and the lady ushered us through. We had 2 minutes to get to the plane by the time we were done with customs. We went to baggage gave it to the lady who told us we better start running. We were only to happy to oblige. We went through security and I was the first one done so I charged ahead. There was a lady in front of me who was walking. I should've ran past her but I didn't and we missed our plane because of it. We literally missed it by like 5 seconds. A witness said so. So a guide scheduled us for the next flight whitch took off at around 8ish. It was 4ish. We had 4 hours to kill and we couldn't leave the airport because we couldn't get back in. So we ate some burgers (still having Tom's when I get back) and then we just watched movies and played gamboys for 4 hours. there wasn't a whole lot of things to do. Keep in mind that this was the Miami airport with the horribly expensive horrible food. Well eventually our flight came and we were on our way home. We got home at around 10:30ish and my grandparents were there to pick us up. We got our baggage (which made it onto the plane we should've been on) and then went home. Show me the way to go home.... I'm tired and I wanna go to bed.... Yes I had a little drink about an hour ago and it went right to my head (Jaws). Anyway I slept on the way home and when we got home I fell asleep. And so ends the voyage to Honduras and back.

But wait our story isn't finished...

The following day guess what I did. I called my neighbor, Trent, up and we went to Tom's to get me a Bacon Cheeseburger, a cookie dough blizzard thing, and a large order of fries. OHHHHHH boy it was good.
