I survived....

So far so good.... I had my first night of driving home from work last night. Of course it was in the dark and raining and mucho trafico.... I volunteered to drop someone from work off at the hotel (otherwise known as my home for the past 3 months) and that was a BIG MISTAKE. The road was under construction and it took me 1 hour to get to the hotel (normally at 20 minute drive). Major traffic, rain, road construction, nighttime - all in all, I think I had a good initiation into driving here!!!

This morning was my first drive into work from my apartment (which is still not clean/complete yet but that is another story). It was an okay drive, I made sure to leave early enough to avoid the major traffic times... but it will be a 40 minute drive in the mornings for sure.

So - thanks to all for the prayers - keep em coming b/c I will need them - it is CRAZY driving here...

Well, you are very brave! You should get a crucifix like all the Mexican taxi drivers have.
I am sure your Spanish vocabulary will increase quickly!
Take good care
