Hello GG families!
It has been quite a long and exciting day for us! By this point, the Glimpsers have made their phone calls back home and are now getting a full night’s rest to prepare for a packed and amazing schedule tomorrow to learn more about Leon and Nicaragua’s history!
Our flights went smoothly, although we were slightly delayed at SFO, we made it just in time before our plane left for El Salvador. Once we have landed in Managua, we were greeted by the friendly smiles of our Program Coordinators (Camila and Carrie) and the rest of GG staff. We all immediately felt the humidity but were quite surprised that it was not as hot as we expected. We took a two hour bus ride to Leon and all of us knocked out at one point (pic to be posted soon). In Leon, we have been met with such kindness and warmth welcome by the hostel staff. Despite how exhausting the trip is, we can’t wait to start exploring Leon tomorrow.
We are looking forward to sharing more with you and reading your comments below!
Big love,
Anette and Silvia
Thank you Anette and Silvia for the update! Glad that you all had a good flight and arrived at Leon to a warm welcome. Can’t wait to hear the stories and pictures in the days ahead! Hope the group gets a good night of rest and ready to take on an exciting Friday morning!
Woo hoo!
Keep hydrated and enjoy!
Sending love!
Thank you for the update. Glad to know that you all are safe and sound though my heart was pounding with worries when I received the phone call originated in Nicaragua yesterday. Look forward to pics and more news.
Hey Isabelle (and the rest of the trip)!!!
I’m glad you made it to Nicaragua and I know you and everyone else are going to have a great time. I’ll be reading the blog every day for updates. Love you and miss you.
I am so glad to hear that you have arrived safely. Get some rest and be ready to hit the ground running. I was so happy to hear Brittany’s voice when I got the phone call. Enjoy this time Brittany and your entire team! We love you and miss you!
