Hi Everyone!
    I've been on the ship for two days now, and I'm finally getting used to the swaying. I was using seasick patches, but stopped because they were messing with my vision.  i can't read or see anything unless i hold it an arms-length away from my face.  So now I've switched to the bracelets we'll see if that actually works. 

    the drive through mexico was....eventful... as the border patrol was checking out our buses and luggage, a fairly large family scaled a ten foot cement barrier wall to get into the US.  No one saw them or was paying them any attention.  I guess our buses were the perfect distraction.  as we were driving away, I looked over and saw the last family member being helped over the wall.  she was about nine or ten, wearing a cute pink dress.  she stood there with one foot up against the wall, looking and reaching up to grab onto one of the many hands stretching down to her.  she eventually go a hold and hoisted herself up and over into California.  I really wonder how far they made it...  

P.S.
 -Thanks Heidi for setting up this blog for me! ur awesome!! and yeaa i've already been at the I.T. desk twice with my specialness ha...
