So I just got into America!!! I got an immediate overwhelming sense of excitement as soon as we landed! I cannot believe what an emotional wreck I am today! Io have read my signature atlas book three times already, cover to cover. I cannot wait to cover it in pictures very soon.
I cannot wait to see Mark, my family, and my friends! I miss everyone so much! I have been privileged to talk to them online essentially this whole semester. It will be so nice to see them in person! ;)
I have two reactions upon arrival. No, three…..
1) HOLY ENGLISH! There is an overwhelming amount of English around me! I’m not sure how to react!
2) I met a girl in customs who had just come home from visiting her friend in Prague for a week! I talked and talked to her while we got our luggage and were czeched by customs. Then I talked and talked to the driver of the shuttle bus. Sat in the front seat across from him. There were others who sat in the back or alone in a corner silently. I am not sure that I would have ever done this before. I have much more confidence! Watch out! ;) haha
3) I need a payphone. I want to talk to Mark or my Dad or Mom and tell them I am here safely, but cannot because THERE ARE NO PAY PHONES HERE!!! What?!?!?! I guess in the days of the cell phone, they were completely erased from society. What a pity for me… Oh well… I will see them s00o0o0o0n!
It is 10:30 at night in the Czech Republic. I bet some of the students are gathering to go out. Or may be getting ready right now. Wonder if they are thinking about me…. Boo…..
See you so0o0o0o0n! XOXO

Mark and I moved to Naples, Italy on April 22, 2012. We will be there for three years and will be documenting all aspects of our crazy new life overseas. Enjoy! Ciao! -The Bakers
