Here is something information that you have all received at one time but I wanted to give it to all you all again so you had it in one place!
PESOS: I know that getting pesos' has not been the easiest for all of you, I am very sorry about that I wish I could make it easier. Please see the post below to see where you can get Pesos. Remember if you go to Wells Fargo, you have to be a Wells Fargo costumer. I have had parents go to the airport to get their pesos and they said it was no problem.
SATURDAY, JULY 7 - Arrive at the airport at 11:45 a.m. Please drop your child off at the drop off outside of US Airways. I (Melanie) will be outside so look for me. All of the small group leaders will be just inside the doors, your child should find their small group leader as soon as they arrive.
Don't forget:
- To wear your trip t-shirt (as is, don't cut it at all or wear it tied to the side)
- Wear appropriate length shorts or pants
- Weigh your bag before you come to the airport. (it needs to be 50 pds or less)
- BRING YOUR PASSPORT
- Bring American money for food
- Bring snacks (if desired)
- Eat lunch before you arrive at the airport.
CELL PHONES - If your child brings a cell phone because it is also their i-pod/mp3 player please remind them to turn it to airplane mode before they get to Mexico. (we will also do our best to remind them at the airport) It is very expensive to text/call/check fb etc. from your cell phone in Mexico.
TRIP BLOG - This blog will be updated every night with how are day went. I will also update it in AZ, Mexico City and MVM when we arrive so you know we have arrived safely. We get to Mexico City around midnight on Saturday night and we will get to MVM around 4/4:30 a.m. on Sunday morning.
Some people have asked me if you can leave stuff (clothes, blankets, shoes etc.) at MVM to donate. The answer is absolutely yes! So if you want to keep that in mind while you pack that would be awesome!
SATURDAY, JULY 14 - We are scheduled to arrive at MSP at 11:50 p.m. I will update the blog in AZ to let you know if we are on time or behind schedule. You can pick up your child at baggage claim or come in the airport to pick them up.
Here are the flight numbers:
July 7 US Airways 92 MSP (departs 2:45 p.m.) to PHX (arrives 4:07 p.m.)
July 7 US Airways 175 PHX (departs 6:50 p.m.) to MEX (arrives 11:50 p.m.)

Thank you all so much for your prayers and for praying for us while we are gone!

Melanie
