I have had a less than auspicious start, but that's ok. I'll be here for another two weeks. In any case, the fact remains that Delta managed to lose my suitcase, and so I will (eventually) be somewhere between $50-100 richer for it. Plus in the meantime I have an adorable bag filled with toiletries and a giant t-shirt to make up for it (I am too easily placated). My only major complaint is how long it took them. We arrived at 9 and I left the airport at 11. Then I took a taxi because the next shuttle wasn't until 12 and I was fed up. Turns out I Sid not have enough money, but the taxi driver found me amusing so he drove me anyway. I got to the hostel and my bed had been given away (and also, I had thought it was a hotel not a hostel, but oh well). So that took a long while to figure out. But I got free coffee so I guess it's ok. Then I passed out for a while. Then I walked by the water and got lost.
...and now I'm exhausted. I kept starting and stopping this but I fear I shall have to go to sleep before my bunk mate here starts snoring again.
In any case, I like it here. I do. Everyone's kind and everything's beautiful and I've yet to meet another American here! I just hope tomorrow goes a little bit better
