Hi all,
I don´t 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 didn´t 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 didn´t give me much homework Wednesday and I got to go out with some friends here to see a Salsa dance class.  I didn´t 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.  I´ll have to let you know when I get back Sunday.

Happy Father´s Day to all you fathers out there, especially my own Dad, Steve.
