... to dance with her. He was happy to oblige. Oh, to be single! Andrew told all of us he was "in love."<br><br>Since some of us had an early flight Sunday we called it quits about 10pm. A small stalward group headed out to a disco and did return home about 1:30am but I was not part of that crew. Tomorrow, reality will set in as we return to the states.<br><br>Until then,<br><br>Rusty *****<br>

... in just 5 minutes after this man reset his bones. It was seriously amazing. <br><br> Another exciting thing to happen, that isn't quite so grotesque,is that my friend Jake is here! He came last Thursday and he will be volunteering here too until December at Casa Esperanza! He is super funny and it's been nice having him around! <br><br> The evenings this week have been filled with very exciting new happenings, too! <br><br>On Wednesday we went ...

... is mind boggling, and everyone seems to have something to sell and street stalls offer anything the discerning or not so discerning consumer could want. It seems if you have anything to sell you might as well try to flog it, whether it is **** and tacky plastic dolls, key rings or blow up plastic Pokémons there seems to be a market. Oh and the customer service in shops is of complete contrast to Guatemala. Big smiles and Bienvenida welcome you as you enter and then ...

... 8220;thank you God and Mr. Barlow,&#8221; my 8th grade industrial tech teacher who taught me how to use a band saw, and &#8220;left loosey, righty tighty!&#8221; I have already made about 20 ornaments, and cut out the pieces for about 6 nativity sets. Every day I get a little bit better, and my goal is to eventually be able to cut 50 ornaments a day. <br><br> Two weeks ago, I helped lead a delegation of Americans who came on a mission trip to El ...

... davon habe ich gluecklicherweise nichts mitgekriegt. Die Wahlen habe ich ja auch gerade verpasst, somit auch nichts politisch Spektakulaeres erlebt. Ich war dort auf einem riesen Markt. Die Leute schreien sich die Kehle aus dem Hals, z.B. um Werbung fuer ihr dreilagiges Toilettenpapier zu machen... Ist echt krass... Und das in dieser Hitze! War also ganz schoen anstrengend, nur schon da durchzugehen und all die Eindruecke aufzunehmen... Aber interessant ...

... had visited so it pulled it all together for me. From Joya de Ceren there were casts of corn and maguey preserved in the destruction. From Tazumal was this beautiful stela. The museum also included lots of Spanish artifacts including this armor and some pretty ceramics. It's all too much to write about so I'll let the pictures speak for themselves. There are more photo thumbnails above...

Scott: So I think we left it in Antiguia, Guatemala but i'll leave that for now as Han as done it and im sure will whack it on the blog when she gets a chance. We satyed an extra night in Guatemala, as we found an Irish bar, a pub quiz night and a lively local to drink the night away with. We got the El Salvador some 8 to 10 days ago, I forget. We stopped the night in the little/big town of Santa Ana. The centre was fairly small. The square was surrounded by a newly painted ...

Our hearts were racing with joy and the first reaction I had was to climb back up and do it again, until I looked up and realized how hig up it really was. Instead we decided to sit back, relax and enjoy the scenery around us.
