I'm here! I left Dripping Springs around three o'clock today, and after a five hour long drive I finally arrived in Van/Garden Valley, Texas. Its basically Van, but the address for where I am is Garden Valley, Texas.
As soon as I arrived I was welcomed warmly and invited to a family's house for dinner, and later another family's house for dessert. The girls here are so sweet! There are many other girls here that are my age. Theres Annie, Rachael, Annie, Kristen, and Steph.
The people here are from many different places, and have fun accents. One of my room mates is from Midland, and the other is from England.
Anyway, its midnight here and everything starts early tomorrow morning, so I should go and get some shut eye. Night!
Check out http://mercyshipslinks.blogspot.com there is an ongoing blog link list for people currently on the AFM, you can read some of those and get a better idea how things are on the ship...and sometimes room pictures and other cool stuff.
ReplyDeleteIf you do work in the kitchen its a rotating schedule thats kinda funky...but still 40 hours, more or less. And a 3 day weekend every two weeks. Except maybe salads, then you may be working just mon-fri.
