Visit to Consuelo and area

... a hot dog, there is always boiled corn available - piping hot, as it too is boiling as the giant pot is pushed along the sidewalks up and down the street. My personal favorite choice, however, is the pizza man, who has installed a pizza oven in the back of his truck, and who walks along the street in his chef's hat and throws the pizza pan in the air has high as possible and catches it - this is how he attracts attention to make sales. For pizza out ...

My home away from home - at last!

... in the relative forseeable future. And thus began my exasperating wait/battle for the gradual arrival of more and more things. <br><br>I did spent a day with my American boss, and he decided that it was necessary to take me to the capital to go shopping for some things, which was extremely nice of him! And now, thanks to him, I have many household items, including a very posh and large toaster oven (most apartments / houses do ...

Schools update

... and how the people live there. They spoke to me at length (in French!) about my work here, how I was able to arrange to come here, etc. After they visited the school, all of the classes left and walked with the visitors to the baseball field (yes - EVERY community - even the poorest - has a baseball field), where they all got into a huge circle and joined hands. They began to sing some catchy songs in Spanish, and it was so nice to see the 2 ...

Visit to Juan Dolio

... jobs and are able to make enough to pay their bills...but they are by no means wealthy like you might think by looking at their home! So, as you can, by now, imagine, she is a very interesting woman, who also happens to be very generous, helpful, and an AMAZING cook! I thoroughly enjoyed the marinated chicken / seasoned lentils / wild rice dish that she prepared - absolutely delicious!! Matilda is also a big animal lover. She has 3 huge dogs - a ...

Weather / visit to University / trip to JUMBO

... to me, and I just looked at him, puzzled. He then repeated - slowly - that he didn't have the key to open the part where the computer/printer was to reset it, but that he would ask his friend to bring him the key. I said ok and stood aside to wait...but then he began to chat with another friend who also works there, and there was no indication of any progress on acquiring the key to the kiosk. So, I decided to do my other shopping and come ...

First Impressions ' Part I

... everyday, hopeful and happy. I hope that this wonderful outlook on life will take them far and help them to establish themselves, rise out of this poverty, and help their families. Overall, I have had a great first experience in these schools, and I am really looking forward to getting to know the teachers and students, and hopefully creating a project through the Rotary Club so that they can receive money and supplies to help them in the future.

So it's been a while....

... and far rowdier bus, was full of youth ages 12-24. During the return trip the two busses got separated and my bus, the family wagon, arrived back to Cacique first. We were all exhausted and went straight to bed without worrying about the second bus's E.T.A. back in Cacique. The next morning I woke up and discovered the reason the second bus was late in arriving back to Cacique was because they had to stop half way and kick two kids off for fighting. Two of Cacique ...

This place is beginning to feel a little like home

... ask and mount it and do a circle around the streets. I was nervous for a while because I have only mounted one horse in my life and that was a very long time a ago let alone knowing how to handle and direct it. Therefore, someone rode on the horse with me and helped me along. It was awesome. I felt like a was on top of the world with all the people in the street looking at those passing by. I did some walking and I left with the people from my community at ...
