B.J. Murrey - World Orphans, Central America

Well I am back in Texas, after a 3000+ mile journey north from Guatemala a little over 9 days ago.

I left Guatemala, driving 500 miles north to Playa Del Carmen, Mexico to meet some friends at a resort there, before continuing on toward the USA, driving through the entire length of Mexico for the 2nd time in 8 months. On the 29th, about 10am, I left Playa and began a marathon journey toward Dallas. I drove 22 hours, before stopping for a 2 hour nap at a truckstop in Veracruz, and then continued on another 22 hours the rest of the way through to Dallas (with another 2 hour nap near Austin). I arrived at my parents house at 6 am this morning, and slept for 5 hours. That makes 9 hours of sleep in the last 3 days. I am looking forward to sleeping in tomorrow morning!
