Hi All!
I am currently writing from Seattle's international airport - the little gateway to the west, as they call it. For a city that is exponentially larger than Missoula, NOTHING is open. It is 12:33 am - my flight leaves at 2, and my only connection to humans is the Starbucks right outside of security that seems to open 24 hours. Now, that is a slice of heaven - a Starbucks open 24 hours! :)
I asked for directions today, and apparently can pick people that KNOW the city. I asked a girl from Sweden where a particular street was, and she promptly pulled her map from her very white coat and said, "I don't know..... I am a tourist too. Lets look together cause I'm lost."
Really?
We then stopped a group of four youngsters (I think maybe 16?) and asked for directions. They said, "uh - dude, you're going the wrong way. Turn around and go for about 10 blocks."
10 blocks!?!?!?! My sister had told me yesterday it was four.
I had steered way off course from a simple post office run, but it made me take in a beautiful city and a city culutre that really isn't matched ANYWHERE else.
Tenaganita News:
I received the scope of my work from Tenaganita today. I will post more on it later as it becomes more clear. Certainly check in once in a while as I am so excited! This is wonderful and you all are a huge part of it! Way to make a dent in the world for justice! Thank you!
Until I'm at the equator,
Jen
