Turks & Caicos!

Obviously, we are here, ha. We arrived around 4pm yesterday afternoon. Our flight from Memphis to Miami was delayed about an hour because one of our pilots didn't show up and they had to call in a new one. But fortunately we made our connecting flight in Miami without much of a problem. We made it here with all but one of our bags. The missing bag is a small one with a few shoes, some toiletries (including Tekia's hair stuff!), and almost all of our sunscreen in it. So we do have all of our clothes and most of our other necessities. We're still trying to locate the bag.

This place is amazing! We were picked up at the airport by one of our Maritz travel directors, and when we arrived at the resort, we were greeted with cool scented towels, fruit punch, and cookies and fruit. Kia said, "They really know how to greet people here!" None of us has ever been to an all-inclusive resort before, so we're all pretty much beside ourselves. We just can't get over the fact that we can drink the Cokes in our fridge, haha. We didn't get much of a chance to swim or play yesterday. We went to a welcome dinner for all the Edward Jones people last night. I don't have much time to post pictures now, but I'll try to later.

Dad is sitting here driving me crazy telling me to post his picture and tell everyone hello. So I'm going to sign off now. Ciao!
