[00:00.00]Her parents were slightly nervous
[00:02.73]experiencing some negative feelings
[00:05.79]about Megan leaving the safety of
[00:07.76]home to live in another country.
[00:10.83]They knew the experience
[00:13.12]would broaden her horizons;
[00:14.87]however, her destination, Montserrat,
[00:17.93]within the past year
[00:20.56]had a huge volcano erupt,
[00:22.75]disrupting people’s lives.
[00:25.16]Unstable conditions, loss of homes
[00:28.99]and fear of more eruptions
[00:31.83]all tended to breed trouble
[00:34.02]among the poor of the island.
[00:36.97]Her parents’concerns
[00:38.61]were for Megan’s safety.
[00:41.13]Departure day dawned clear
[00:44.41]and bright. Farewells were made
[00:47.92]to family and friends
[00:49.44]and she was off
[00:50.65]for the adventure of a lifetime.
[00:52.73]Megan’s arrival on Montserrat
[00:55.46]was both welcoming and
[00:58.52]initially uneventful. The island family
[01:02.57]where she was to live
[01:04.43]for the next six months,
[01:06.41]made her feel right at home.
[01:08.26]As the pace of life
[01:10.88]on the island was more
[01:12.75]relaxed than at home,
[01:14.39]she was very happy.
[01:16.25]Her new schoolmates included her
[01:19.31]in their lives and
[01:21.71]she adapted quickly.
[01:24.01]Swimming in the warm ocean water,
[01:26.75]and sitting underneath waving
[01:28.83]palm trees in a mild climate,
[01:31.89] was a pleasant change
[01:33.75]from the cold northern winters.
