A field trip on steroids.

Sorry to my not-so-loyal readers.. I have not updated recently because my computer died and I have only a cell phone to go on the internet with. I am breaking this habit because I am about to embark on an entirely new type of trip.... a field trip to Mexico with 20-something students from my school. I work at a school in inner-city Brooklyn and although many of the students are of afro-caribbean decsent... not many of them have traveled out of the country or out of their neighborhoods. I applied to be one of the teachers on the trip and was accepted. These kids have worked hard all year fundraising and it should be amazing. We meet at the school this coming morning at 4am to head to the airport on a "cheesebus" (a regular schoolbus, which the kids are embarrased to ride), I could have done one of my normal trips with my time off this Spring Break, but I decided this will be much more of an experience watching most of these students experience the wonders of travel for the first time. I will update as often as I can. Be well and get ready for some surely amazing posts...
