We're Here!

Hello! Here's a quick update We had a lot of delays yesterday. We were supposed to fly from Dallas to Sao Paulo and land in Sao Paulo at 7:30 yesterday morning. However, due to fog, the airport in Sao Paolo was closed, so we circled the area for a while. After a while, the plane was running out of fuel, so we were rerouted to Rio de Janiero. Once there, we refueled for an hour, then spent another hour waiting for the radar/air traffic to start working again there, so it took us a while to get back in the air. We landed in Sao Paulo around 1 in the afternoon, which is about when we were supposed to land in Belo Horizonte. After some massive lines and confusion in the airport, we got on a plane and finally got to Belo Horizonte at around 6 last night. We were very tired and very hungry, but we were so glad to make it. I'll perhaps go into greater detail about everything later.

Today was a big day of getting familiar with the area and meeting people. We've already met some fantastic people and we're very excited to be here. Yesterday was very frustrating and scary, but today is so much the opposite. We'll hopefully add more later and give you more impressions of everything, but we're about to start a meeting. Farewell
