So I was going to try and limit internet, but since I will have to start abiding by the 30 mins/week in the Turtle camp on Saturday, I decided to take advantage of the internet cafe down the street :) And since the bridge into PV collapsed yesterday, Greta has not been able to make it into the city to do a few last minute things with the 3 of us.
I really enjoy being with the other volunteers with my group. Jon and Marilyn are super nice and allow me to tag along with them bc there are only the 3 of us and Greta says it´s a good idea to travel in pairs at the least. We´ve been in to PV a couple of times...people pretty much think we are a happy family until they here my American accent and know that there is no way I could possibly be their child. Yesterday we went in search of some yummy authentic food and found this lively little bistro by the river. During our lunch we had a visitor...AN IGUANA! It was Marilyn and Jon´s first time seeing an iguana so they were really excited, and being the reptile love that I am, I was excited too. The staff must have been confused as to why we were jumping up and running over to take numerous pictures of an iguana, but whatever.
Spanish lessons have started and I feel like I have run a marathon after each session (we started a day earlier than expected). I am pleased to find that I am understanding more than I thought I would be, but it is still hard to find the words when I am conversing with our teach Lupita.
Well I guess that´s it. Nothing too exciting right now. I am hoping to drop off my laundry and go to this burrito stand my other roommate keeps raving about for lunch.
Love to all!
Have a great time and stay safe, we want to hear from you often so try to keep up with the blog. Love you and so excited for you and this wonderful adventure! Madeline comes home on Sunday and I was able to order videos of both of her shows, so one day maybe you can get to see it...Christmas?
