Day 9

So currently the group is on our final destination flight from Miami to Boston. We said goodbye to Leah, Jeff, Sarah, and Frank in Managua, Nicaragua at the airport and bye to Hank and Heather in Miami. Doug already left yesterday to Managua alone. We were all worried he wouldn't survive but he's fine and probably on route to Haiti which is where himself, Sarah, and Jeff are all headed. That leaves us 12 kids with Joe. (A.K.A. Jobot, Costello, slowbot, Pop, Joseph (also pronounced like ho-seph), and anything that rhymes with robot) 
Basically today just consists of traveling and saying goodbye. :( We all had to get up pretty early, around 5am, and withstand a 3 hour van ride to the airport. From there it's been flying, airports, security, and sleeping all day. 
I think for the most part (I don't want to speak for others) people were excited to be back in the US because we have our normal food and it doesn't smell like Nicaragua  but we also didn't want the trip to end. We've all grown really close being together in the same hostel, environment, and house. We had family style meals most of the time with everyone taking turns to cook and clean and it all just felt very natural. The greatest part about the trip was being able to go with such an amazing group of people and it wouldn't have been the same experience without them. Saying goodbye will be the hardest part but most of us are already talking about coming back. 
Until next time bloggie.  --Serina
