This morning, we packed up our luggage and moved all of it to the main building. The education girls came last night and we're pretty loud all night, thankfully my earplugs blocked most of the noise out. Our group, Professor Yerxa's group, and the huge education group loaded into the van and the bus, then we headed to the Belize Zoo. The zoo was pretty cool, we were able to get really close to all of the animals. The jaguars, tiger cats, and the harpy eagles were my favorite. The animals were so cool, I'm glad that we were able to go. One kind of scary thing that happened was these bloody bug bites. I'm not sure what the bugs were because we never saw them. They bit our legs and we didn't even feel their bite, we would just find blood trickling down our legs. I was pretty creeped out, but I guess I'll be O.K. because I'm not dead yet! We headed back to the campground where we loaded the tons of luggage onto two pickup trucks, the bus, and the van. We were cramped pretty tight and to be honest, the ride was miserable.
We drove through several towns and the landscape went from flat to hilly. We saw a variety of homes and buildings as we drove to our destination. Finally, we arrived to the school where we are going to stay until next Sunday. There are two dormitories, one for the boys and one for the girls. All of the girls rushed into the huge room and started grabbing their bunks. I followed some of the girls in my group and put my stuff on the lowest bunk (there are three per bunk). I was worried that I wouldn't be able to because I'm so afraid of rolling off again like at church camp years ago. It is pretty crowded in here with over 37 girls. Good night!
