Nia goes to Ecuador with spanish class
Here is an entry from the class blog.
Yesterday morning a group of twenty Cary Academy students met at the new addition to the Raleigh Durham airport, anxious to begin their journey to the foreign country of Ecuador! After a smidgen of waiting we boarded the first Delta aircraft that took us from our hometown of Raleigh NC to Atlanta GA. We arrived in Atlanta around 3 pm and explored the unfamiliar area. Some of us passed the three hour layover playing cards, others explored the airport, and some shopped and ate food. After a 19 minute delay, we left Atlanta for Quito, Ecuador. The flight was long with some turbulence. When we finally landed, I guess its safe to say we were relieved. They made us wear masks as we exited the plane and entered the airport. Customs were confusing and we had to turn in several forms and we even had to stand in front of a thermal camera. Finally, we made it to the hotel, The Dann Carlton. We were dazzled by its sparkly floor and even though it was midnight, all of us were bursting with excitement of what was to come the next day.
