We Have Arrived-Tegucigalpa

Hola fans
We are writing from GMBs headquarters in Tegucigalpa. After arriving last night and traveling to our hotel, we packed up for an early rise. The drive to the capital was four hours and from here we will travel one more hour to Nuevo Paraiso, where we will stay for the week. Tonight we will be getting our pharmacy prepared for our first brigade tomorrow morning. We are very anxious to get going and look forward to having wonderful stories to post in the coming days.

Thank you for your encouraging comments, we will post very soon.

    It is wonderful to know all of you are great. I personally wish you a great adventure where Love and Joy will permeate your hearts.
    I wish this human experience will open a huge horizon for your life wherein other culture and customs will show you a total different world.
    My english is not so good so I will write some words in spanish.
    Ojala todas esas nueva personas que van a conocer les regalen un cachito de su corazon para que se lo lleven de vuelta a Canada y aprendan a leer la hermosa sonrisa de los niños latinos, el abrazo caluroso de la gente que no tiene bienespero mucho cariño para compartir. Ojala que uds hagan la diferencia para que dejen una hermosa huella que jamas sea olvidada.

    Miren de Godoy (Ruthie`s Mom).
    Un gran abrazo
