Friday = Talent Show!

Cornerstone has been very busy preparing for a talent show featuring students from schools in San Ignacio and surrounding areas. Most of the day was spent collecting prizes which were donated from local business. It was interesting to talk with Heidi about how people went about donating. She told me unlike the formal...

Jeronie, one of the Tut brothers, picked us up and chatted with us on the drive back to San Ignacio. When we got close, he told us that he knew of a place that made great cheesecake and asked if we'd like any. After receiving the obvious answer, he stopped in front of Sweet Ting and we walked in and purchased one slice of Oreo cheesecake and one...

After almost 4.5 months, we decided it was time to expand our horizons and leave Mexico. There are still a few places that we want to see on our way home but we managed to get to at least half of the 32 Mexican states (we lost count somewhere along the way) as well as the 1 federal district.

Greetings from my second day in Belize. I arrived yesterday at around 11 in the morning. It was extremely hot, but we all were in such good moods it didn't matter. We then went to Peace Corps headquarters in Belize City for lunch and a ceremony. After that we left Belize City for San Ignacio which is on the eastern border of Belize only 15 miles...

It was another early start in order to get the 8am water taxi back to Belize, so I could get the first available chicken bus to San Ignacio, in western Belize. I grabbed some AMAZING little pies from an old lady at the bus station in Belize City. I bought two, but they were so good I went back and bought another six!!! We had a brief stop in Bel...
