Monday, Tuesday and today (Wednesday) were rather normal days for us. Of course, our mornings involve school - although Monday lacked motivation for the teacher as well as the students. After school, we usually venture out for something. Yesterday was "Revolution Day" here. Guatemala has a lot of holidays. It was an absolutely gorgeous day, and the view of "Agua" volcano was fabulous. I've attached a photo:
We had some fun with science at school. The C.O.W. staff may recognize the super poly-absorbent crystals in our recycled container. These tiny, hard little crystals will absorb a ton of water and grow exponentially in size. Anyways, Chris and Caroline have seen them lots of times, but I didn't think Luis had at his Casa Aleluya school. The crystals are even more fun with colored water. We've enjoyed observing them change.
You may also notice the bread on the counter. The brand name is "Bimbo" and the kids don't know why I chuckle every time I make sandwiches. Oh, the little things that help me keep my sense of humor. :)
Have a great evening, and thank you for your prayers!
Looks like you are fitting in quite nicely with the Guatemalan culture....especailly with the bread. Love and miss you tooooooo much.
ReplyDeleteGood Morning! It is nice to hear that life is becoming somewhat routine for you. It will be fantastic for all of you to have Papi back for a visit to totally disrupt the routine! The photo of "Agua" is incredible, but of course it can't compare to your students! You have very nice looking students.
