So, I made it! I'm in DC, and I got there all by myself! I'm not going to lie, I'm a little proud of that!
My flights went well. The landing was a little rough on the first, and the second had some turbulence toward the end, but otherwise, they were fine. It was a little nerve wracking to hurry my way through the Atlanta airport, trying to make sure I got to the right concourse at the right time.
Meeting up with the other exchangers was pretty fun. It was nice to see some people I'd met before or talked to online. I liked those few hours we had to just sit around and mingle. What got a little trying was all the activities and discussions the YFU staff had us go through. There was a point where I was just too tired to really care what was being talked about (though I know most of it is for my own good).
Tomorrow could be fun, but I've got the feeling it won't be. We're doing some touring of the Capitol and some nearby museums. Then we're meeting with our representatives/sponsors. That's all fine and dandy, but it's supposed to be really hot and humid tomorrow. That's not going to be fun at all. I just hope I don't end up looking too sloppy by the end of it...
Oh well, it's one day, and then I'll just have a short while on Thursday before beginning the next leg of this trip!
Bis später!
