Starting our West Coast Trip!!

God we made it to Phoenix! And it is only the beginning!!!!
Everybody here is super excited for the trip and we can’t wait to hop on the bus and visit all these different places that Belo planned for us!! Everyday sounds more exciting than the other!! A lot of natural places to see as well as big cities and lights!!

I (Basma) traveled here from Fort Collins, Colorado to PHX. It was a short flight just an hour. I was welcomed at Sky Harbor Airport by great Belo staff and was taken to the hotel by them. Then we jumped to the pool. It was hot and fun.
I (Caroline) came from Minneapolis, Minnesota to Phoenix. I still had to go to school though to take my finals. I took a plane and arrived after 4 hours at Phoenix. We arrived pretty late at the hotel and that kinda sucked because we couldn’t jump into the pool to get refreshed.

But then we had an amazing dinner and ate well. After that we had a funny/friendly/informative/advisable orientation and learned how the trip will work. 

The Orientation was done and we had still time to hang out in the lobby and get to know more people, because we are 95 (!!!!!!!!) exchange students from all over the world. At the end of the night, everybody returned to their rooms and tried to keep quiet and get ready to rock n’ roll tomorrow!!!!
