Eve of my departure to Mexico


Here it is, the beginning of a new blog for the beginning of a new international adventure. I'll leave Omaha tomorrow, May 10th, at 6 a.m. Then on to Dallas, where I only have an hour to get to my next flight, which goes to Mexico City, D.F. (The D.F. stands for Districto Federal, sort of like our Washington, D.C.). From D.F., I will take a bus to Xalapa, Veracruz for about 5 hours. Then to taxi to where I'm staying, Coatepec, a small town just outside of Xalapa.

I've never spoken to my hostess before, but I've messaged her daughters with WhatsApp and emailed them. I have her address and phone number. I should be there by 8 p.m. tomorrow.

Today I did all the last minute things--shopping, mailing, printing, picking up and dropping off, and I got all my hair chopped off.

AFTER


I got an undercut because I'm so edgy...and also because it's the summer and it's hot and I have a lot of hair! 

That's basically the most exciting thing from today. Next post will be from MEXICO!
