Well, as some of you who read this blog might know, we have arrived in Homestead, FL!
The trip was not exactly a nightmare, but I'm not terribly upset that it's over, either.
Observations about Homestead / America.
1.) Lots of Spanish here! It's time to brush off what I learned in high school / college.
2.) Everything is bigger in America! The small drinks at fast food restaurants are bigger than the "super size" ones in Korea.
3.) Going into Wallmart was staggering. I could not believe the massive amount of food and other goods that are available in the US. This truly is the land of plenty.
4.) This county is flat, flat, flat! And that's great news if you ride bikes. I'm very pleased to not have to go up any hills.
5.) Hot weather is here, but I don't mind, I'm soaking it up with a smile. There is a nice strong sea breeze most of the time, so it's not too bad. We have to keep using sun tan lotion on the girls especially, as we don't want "bacon"-ettes.
6.) Jet lag is terrible. But it's HORRIBLE when a baby is involved. Just sayin'
7.) I got an iPhone! If you need to contact me, it's 305-878-6604.
8.) People down South, as I am remembering, are very nice. And very slow. This will be good for my Yankee frenetic pace.
9.) I love tacos.
10.) God is good!
