... him and asked if he wanted to buy me flowers. He said no. then the kid said, "why, do you not love her" It was hilarious. People often think whoever I am with that that is who I am married to, since they always translate for me.

I have given up flip flops unless it is to school and back. This one day my host mom asked if I wanted to go shopping with her. I ...

... you do is walk up and push a button. If it turns red they search you, if it is green you go. Well, this lady didn't trust me. (can you believe it) She had me push it, saw that it was green, then started talking again. So she told me to push it again. Of course, it turns red. So, they searched all my bags. The poor guy helping me had to stand there with me. Finally, they finished. Then I met some of the ...

Well I'm writing this blog from Leon...after last week I decided I needed to come back to Leon today to be at the Bible Study again. These people really impacted me in the short two days I was here last weekend, and decided I would love to be able to see them all one last time before I go home. I arrived this morning by bus and was delighted to have one of the women from the small group pick me up. Her name is Deyanira and the sweetest ...

... and was able to laugh with me on the shots that never made it up hill, the well placed sand trap shots and all of the punch shots through the tree lines (my favorite style of golf).

We kept in touch with them throughout our trip. They offered to rent us their place through the winter. We would get to come home and visit family and friends for a few days.
