Arrival in Mexico

After numerous flight delays and a missed connection due to the hurrican weather, I have finally made it to the CIMMYT headquarters in El Batan, Mexico.  My corn seeds that I was trying to take to Nicaragua was taken away at the customs in Mexico City; I declared them, which was a mistake looking back, but I plan on buying more seed while I am at CIMMYT, so we will see how that goes. 
Tomorrow I go on my tour of the campus here and I will be hearing a few lectures that are hopefuly extremely beneficial to my future attempts at crop production in Nicaragua. 
I am going to get some rest now, and I feel pretty good about the room I am staying in, so far the score is Cockroaches 0 me 2.

Greetings,

Austin
