Okay, what I should really be doing is calling a cab to get to the airport (they're not really serious about being there 2 hours early for international flights, are they?), but just wanted to give a quick update. Along with 11 other students and two professors, I'm headed to Quito, Ecuador, this morning for a two-week immersion (with a brief, 7-hour layover in Panama). I'm super-excited to quit falling back into the ease of English for a brief time and see if I can untie my tongue a bit. I'll be staying with a host family (my 16.95-year-old niece asked "Do old people really do home stays?!") and having classes every day at the Academia Latinoamerica de Español. We'll do salsa classes several evenings and head to a national park for the weekend (I'm envisioning zip-lining and lots of vegetation). D sent me his head size, so I'll be scoping out the hat situation as well.
Wish me luck, or buena suerte!
