I'm skipping forward a couple of days to day 28. Overwhelming is an understatement. The conference began on Wednesday and ended today (Saturday). Saying goodbye to everyone we have met was too much. So many tears were shed. And I feel like I only was able to say good bye to half the people I wanted to. You immediately start planning for the next time you might be able to see each other in super optimistic hopes you have time to do this again. I honestly hope I never forget this feeling and over the next 10 years I go back to each of these countries and these people.
I will pick up on the past two days later... but today I really want to just try to write about how amazing the past few days have been.
Wow. Okay. I want to try to express this with out sounding completely egotistical, but it's kind of crazy to go into a room of 200 people who all want to take a picture with you, and talk to you, and ask about your trip and your life and everything. It's really crazy and humbling. I keep fumbling over the words and they just don't come.
I'll start from the beginning of today. First off... hello camera! Mario and I got together for my camera exchange. Actually, I awoke from sleep with these words from Christi: 'You know what song is in my head?' and my response out of my sleeping haze... dah, da, dant, den, da, Chin, in, de, ga....'... incorrect. But, it was a good try.
We were picked up by Julio and Paul for a boat ride through the canal. Check that one off the bucket list.
