Hello from Okinawa!
After about 32 hours of travel yesterday, I finally made it! Okinawa is 14 hours behind the US so I had a lot of trouble sleeping last night, even though I had been up for over 30 hours. I ended up traveling with about 40-50 other Camp Adventure staff, so it made things very easy. We went straight to bed right when we arrived and I woke up to the Star Spangled Banner being played on the base speakers. I guess they play it twice a day and everyone is supposed to stop what they are doing and face a flag. Traffic even stops when it plays. We got our roommates last night and I ended up being paired with a girl from Solon who I have been training with all semester, which was great! I can see the ocean from my bedroom window, from what I can see it looks crystal clear and is very beautiful. They won't let us off the base until we get all of our base access cards, which stinks! We have a lot of training in the next couple of weeks and we won't get to start working with the kids for two more weeks. We are now off to more meetings, have a good week:).

Love,
Nat
