I donīt have much time, but wanted to update everyone on my happenings.
Most importantly, yes, we had an earthquake here Wednesday. Luckily it was very deep so there was no damage. I actually didnīt even know it had happened because I was on the bus going to teach. I found out about it later that night and it is a little bit scary because we had a couple tremors last week. I would rather not experience an earthquake while I am here!
Earlier this week I was feeling very frustrated and my brain was on overload with everything. Luckily my Spanish teacher didnīt give me much homework Wednesday and I got to go out with some friends here to see a Salsa dance class. I didnīt dance but watched this time. Next time I will embarass myself again and try to figure out the rhythm. I learned that all work and no play makes life not fun. So after some free time I was refreshed and the rest of this week has been great. I got some game ideas and resources from a friend here who is also teaching English so I look forward to sharing those with my students. I appreciate all the song suggestions everyone sent me.
Well I gotta run we are having a dinner at the Spanish school soon. This weekend I am going to Lake Atitlan through my Spanish school. It is supposed to be one of the most beautiful lakes in the world. Iīll have to let you know when I get back Sunday.
Happy Fatherīs Day to all you fathers out there, especially my own Dad, Steve.
