We Made It!!! Ist night!

We arrived in Monterrey around 11:30 am! We got to the B2B Compound around 1:30. It was, and still is pouring down rain haha. just a little wet. They said it hasnt rained in over a year, and all the wells are almost dried up! Thank God for the rain! They told us that we could only take three minute showers to save water. haha. Yes Victorias chin dropped! but there was a sigh of relief when they said the wells were filling back up haha.

We are having a blast already. The Compound has grown since last year and it is so cool to see all the new exciting changes. We had a bunch of meetings today and did some games to get to know our fellow interns! some of them we did in the rain. yea we got just a little wet. but we had fun, and then we went to dinner and ate some real Mexican Taco's!!! oh yes they were delicious!!!

We have a big day tomorrow. We learn our jobs and have to do safety training. The first group comes around 1 tommorrow. it is very exciting!

Here are some pics of our new friends and fellow interns!!

Hope everyone had a great 4th!!!!

Hi Victoria and Adam
Glad to hear you both made it safely. Victoria, thanks for coming over the other day and swimming with me and telling me all about Mexico. I am looking forward to reading about you both and your accomplishments each day. Also, Victoria, I hope you didn't eat the "chicken" tacos
Be safe. Love Deej
