We've arrived in Durham today. Its beautiful here.
The drive wasn't so much fun. We were dehydrated and it turns out the air conditioning doesn't work in the car, so we had to blast it just to feel somewhat cool. I had to peel my jeans off they were so sticky. It was gross.
We're here though, safe and sound. Camila's house is beautiful- its very modern but very comfortable. Her parents are both from Spain and philosophy professors, so you can see the influence in the way the spaces are designed. Its wonderful.
They fed us wonderful sandwiches and I have drank about 2 liters of water since we've got here. We're just going to relax for the rest of the night, I think. Melanie and I are both pretty pooped. We're hoping to just watch a movie and sleep well tonight.
Tomorrow we're going to the ocean, it will be our goodbye to the Atlantic before we officially head west!
More to write later.

Sorry to hear about the air conditioning... get some good sleep tonight and I am sure you will feel better. I miss you and hope you are having lots of fun! love, your sister
yikes. no A/C makes for a bad time on a road trip. Keep your deodorant in the freezer, and when you put it on it will really make you cold! Also, running a water tap really cold on each wrist for 20 seconds helps, too. You could do that at all of your pee stops while you drive. Just some friendly heat advice from your favorite Texan!
Thanks Claire! It definitely helped- I tried the deodorant thing and it worked!
Dear Courtney,
Looks like you are seeing a lot of the country and sounds enjoyable. We had a great time in Italy and Grand-Ma enjoyed it also. They miss you at McClave Engineering. Have fun
Love
Grand-Pa
