... at the edge of the park&#8230;.. travelling in the back of a pick up&#8230; in fact 15 of us fitted in it! There were only about 3 or 4 seats in the front and the rest are in the back!<br><br>Once at Buenos Aires, we went for a very challenging hike to a waterfall&#8230;. Up and down and over logs, down steep crevasses, climbing down ladders (which broke in places!) &#8230;. All I can say is that I am sore!!! It was fun though, and we had a great ...

... to walk with us down the street to where we were supposed to meet our bus. Of course, the bus wasn´t there, so we waited in the parking lot, under the supervision of a kid with a machette, until the bus arrived quite a bit later. After this, we headed back to the Hilton and celebrated into the night before crashing in our hostel. <br><br>Today, we´re recovering, and taking care of a few things before Stephanie flies back tomorrow, and we head off to El Salvador.

Hi again! <br>I'm sorry I haven't been writing but there isnt a lot of news and I've also been ill. <br><br>This has been the second week at school. School has gone well, largely as I am getting the classes into a routine and understand better their level of english. The principal spoke to me on friday (he hasnt said much to me so far, as he only speaks spanish and I guess he was worried how much I could understand) and said he ...

... to go outside to pee every night. Yea, I don&#8217;t visit her room much. <br><br>Katie L. aka K-Lo &#8211; 21 Super tomboy from Madison. Went to UW-Madison and was in my Spanish class last year. I was actually the person to tell her about BECA. She&#8217;s my roomie and we get along great except she makes me feel lazy because she goes to sleep after me and gets up before me to run every day. She tells me about the things I say in my sleep every night. She only eats protein ...

Hi again!<br> <br>It has remained hot but the rains are becoming common now, every afternoon about 5pm. Sunday evening, the rains were very heavy and stormy, and I&#8217;m glad the house is water-tight! We often have dinner at 5-6pm at the rocks (at an enormous cost of 30p), and I always forget my umbrella, so we frequently get wet on the way home! <br> <br>The house I am living in has 3 bedrooms, two bathrooms, a kichen, and my sleeping area. We ...

... tortilla maker in town which is a lady&#8217;s house and waited the 45 minutes for 10 of her super tortillas. I probably would&#8217;ve been really angry to wait that long for some tortillas in the States, but the feeling of being rushed is so foreign to us now that neither of us batted an eye. We chatted the minutes away and for a droplet of time we finally realized that we were actually living in Honduras. A concept so odd that it still catches me by surprise at times.

... feel tired at all. That&#8217;s faith, I suppose!<br><br>On Sunday I went with my host family to their other property where they are building a house. The property is only a 5 minute drive from Dona Julia&#8217;s house. They have a pool and, of course, a soccer field. We all played in the pool and later watched the men play soccer. Two of the other volunteers came by too and Jose drove us up the mountain to see a view of Cofradia. We passed more rural homes and ...

... refusing but they are more stubborn I suppose. <br><br>My Honduran "babies" are no longer babies! They are in "prepa" this year which is pretty equivalent to American kindergarten (ages 5-6). They have learned so much- they are even writing! Last year we worked on coloring and writing their names and holding pencils! Everyone was incredibly welcoming. They had a big "Welcome Back Miss Claudia sign and we shared countless group ...
