Early to rise, I left my host family behind at 7:30 am as we boarded the bus. Today was spent almost entirely on the bus with the exception of two stops, one at a ghost town named Dos Cabezas and another in El Paso, Texas. There wasn’t much to see except for the graveyard at the first stop but in El Paso we stopped at a mall fur lunch. My bus buddy today was Joke (pronounced Yo-Kah) from Belgium. On the way there we watched two movies; the Secret, and School of Rock. The scenery was very boring as we drove back through Arizona, New Mexico, and eventually Texas. We arrived in a small town called Van Horn, Texas around 5:30 local time. We crossed our first time zone today going ahead an hour. We are staying the night in a high school gym; unfortunately when we arrived, they were in the middle of a basketball practice so we played some tennis and football outside until supper. Supper was the usual spicy enchiladas with rice, beans, and unsweetened ice tea. I guess we are going to watch a movie tonight, probably something called “Amelie”, I have no idea what it is about but I’ll watch it anyhow because we don’t have any internet or anything. Its all Good™
