the anticipation

Waiting in the hotel for the bus to arrive to take us to the ship, finally. I have been told to get used the the hurry up and wait mentality, I'm trying, it will be an adjustment.

I have met some wonderful people, all here for a common purpose. No one is "doctor" or "nurse", just call me by my first name... Takes away a bit of the anxiety as I am in a limbo, professionally.

Luz and I took a cab ride this morning to market area with local vendors... got offered some mysterious food that looked yummy but neither one of us could really identify it, so needless to say we skipped it.

There is still so much that is unknown, the anticipation lingers, as does the excitement. Looking forward to getting settled into my new (temporary) home.
