Okay now on to Miami! We left Johnny's parents later than we planned, but we made really good time getting to SLC. We checked in and had to pay a little extra for our checked bag because it was overweight. Our flight left at midnight and was and we got no sleep at all. I don't know how people can sleep on air planes. Its so noisy and the chairs are uncomfortable. We had our layover in New York and I decided I hate JFK. It was dirty and confusing, everything was really expensive, it also my have been that I was tired and hungry. Our flight to Miami went well. I got a little bit of sleep because I was so exhausted. We road the bus to get to the apartment and when we got off the bus I felt like we were on another planet. We didn't know which way to walk or how to read their street directions. We got a little lost trying to find the apartment so we called the landlord and he came to pick us up. He is so nice. He has been very helpful. After he showed us the apartment he took us on a drive to show us where everything was, he explained the street directions to us. The apartment is nice. It is a converted garage, but he did it very well. The yard is BEAUTIFUL. There is a very nice park that we have as a neighbor as well. We needed to go to Best Buy because our laptop's hard drive crashed. We got there just fine, but got very, very lost on the way home. We wandered around looking for the apartment for about 2 1/2 hours. We were so tired by the time we found it but we couldn't stop because we still had to go to the store. We were so tired we didn't want to cook dinner and we hadn't eaten since 7 in the morning so we went to a Japanese buffet. It was SSSSOOOO good. I ate so much crab! We finally got home and just crashed.
I think I could get used to Florida. It is so nice here. We got up this morning and hopped on the bus to go to church. I love that church feel the same no matter where you are. Everyone was so friendly! We met some people that just finished their fifth semester at Ross and are going to their house for dinner. They want to tell us all about Dominica. There is also a family at church starting Ross tomorrow. Its nice to know there are others at church in the same boat as us. So the start of our adventure has defiantly been one.
