Arrived in El Salvador - Sunday, July 29

We're here!  Our trip down here went well.  A few holdups occurred on taxiways and airport waiting rooms, but we eventually emerged from customs, picked up our bags, and met our Habitat host, Francis Padilla.  She has been our weekly host for years.  We met our small bus and were driven to a lunch spot in San Salvador, the capitol city.

We help Bob Clark celebrate is ?? birthday in the hotel lobby in Indianapolis Friday night.
Bob says he's "Old enough to know better".  Bob's granddaughter's made the cupcakes.
