It was an early morning departure today. As you can see from the picture, there aren't many people in the Cincinnati airport at 5am!
Advance team members arrived safely in Belize this afternoon! While most members are from the Cincinnati area, others are from Milwaukee, Denver and Nashville.
After arriving in Belize City and passing through Customs, we jumped in vans and began the 2 hour drive north to Corozal in the northern part of the country. The sites along the way are very interesting and very different from what we're used to. Most of the landscape along the way is open fields with sparse trees, bushes and lots of sugar cane. Every now then is a small town where you find small houses and a few, very small grocery stores. I'll share more about the country's geography later.
The surgical team made a stop in Orange Walk to visit the hospital and meet with the local medical team. Others have just arrived at our hotel in Corozal.
It's about 70 degrees and sunny here (a bit warmer than Cincinnati today).

Jeff - Thanks for the Day 1 update. We are thinking about all of you. Peter and Paige are learning how to share Daddy! Dee
Jim Pustinger called at 9:10 a.m. today to say all the rest of the team boarded the plane and have landed safely in Houston. Jim was able to get on the early flight, so no need to leave a van at the airport for him.
