We made into St. John's last night without one single major issue! We wrapped up in customs around 11:30 and headed to the hotel. The girls were all sorts of wound up, but we got them down eventually. Out our hotel window we could tell that there was water, but this mornng revealed so much more.
The water outside our window is actually St. John's Bay. Just beyond the bay you can barely see the ocean. Barely because this morning the whole city was covered in fog and there was a slight drizzle. We're told that this is pretty normal around here. So, basically, when you go to the grocery store you don't sweat a gallon walking from the car to the produce (as in Houston), but you will need a rain jacket. Sounds like a fair trade to me!
The architecture here is amazing and the terrain is sort of like Austin. There are lots of ups and downs when you drive. We're in Jeramy's office right now, but we're about to go see our potential house. I also need to go buy some socks for my poor sockless baby. It's about 58 degrees here right now and the baby, she owns no socks. Don't really need them when you live where you are constantly coated in a warm blanket of 100 percent humidity.
I have taken some pictures and will take more today and post tonight. Off to explore!
