Team Arrives Safely in Tegucigalpa / One Member Short

This is R. Seivert writing on Carolyn's blog.
The team had a great day yesterday and a good overnight in Omaha.
Everyone awoke at 3:00 A.M.
Paige Ellensohn, one of the Gehlen seniors has returned to LeMars and did not make the trip. Paige had quite a serious allergic reaction this morning at the airport. Do not know why. She was treated by emergency people right in the airport and eventually got better throughout the rest of the morning. She has also been seen by her own doctor here in LeMars and returned home to her parents care for the day. She seemed to be much better by noon and hopefully will come out of this totally.
As most or all of you realized, the team landed safely in Tegucigalpa a few minutes late.
I have spoken with them 3 times since their arrival. 46 of the 56 bags came through. They will arrange to get the other 10 in the coming days. I have no idea which ones made it and which did not.
At 2:30 this afternoon they were north of Tegucigalpa enroute to Esquias. Will probably arrive around 5:00 to 5:30.
Probably no more blogging tonight unless Carolyn finds time. They will be busy on reaching Esquias.
I will keep you posted if Carolyn cannot. Remember, my cell is 712-540-3062.
Take Care,
R. Seivert
