Belize- Day One

We're finally in Belize! After many months of planning, collecting supplies, prayer, tears, prayer, sweat, prayer, and hours of traveling, we have made it to Belize. We left for the airport at 5:00 am this morning and landed in Belize City around 3:00 pm after making a stop in Dallas. We then met up with our team of 60 people, loaded our luggage, and hopped onto a bus for a 4 hour ride through the jungle. And it is jungle! Most houses are one room shacks on stilts and far and few between. After following a windy road, taking some dramamine, stopping at one of only two gas stations in the four hours we drove, we finally made it to the beautiful resort. It is luxurious! I wish I would've gotten married here. I'll post pictures tomorrow. I want to post some of the clinic first, so that you'll believe we're on a missions trip and not vacation. When we got to the resort, they took us to a dock and fed us till we could eat no more. We are exhausted, but ready to face the challenge God has placed on our hearts. We are forever grateful and amazingly blessed to have the support system that we have through our friends, family, and church family. We truly could not have done this without you. I'm headed for bed! Love and blessings from Belize!

P. S. I'm having trouble uploading pictures tonight. Hopefully better luck tomorrow!
