I haven't forgotten, I'm just really busy

The picutres are from my excursion on the 7th
Although it may look like I'm having fun, seeing alot of cool things, speaking alot of Spanish. Believe me when I say certain things I'm missing. Por ejemplo: (Mi casa dulce a casa. = My home sweet home.) But for the time being I happy with were I'm at. I didn't have time to blog all this down some I'll give you a quick breakdown of what my journal says.

Plane ride was fine for a red eye, I don't know why both flight I got stuck next to the crying babies but no me gusta. Once I hit the ground at Houston I realized I was going to miss alot of my Friends and Family and BRI. Thanks again for all the people that supported me at any point in the journey (Support, Baptizism, Prayer,............ and more)

I slept in till noon. The day before, I flew in to Acupulco and had to go to the orthodontist before leaving for Ometepec, we didn't arrive till 9:30 . I can't believe how tired I was. I didn't set my alarm properly because I set it to Pacific Time not Central. SO what I thought was 10:30 was actually 12:30 OOPS.

Went around town to the market and town square to see a play and buy fruit with Susi Wood and then later to buy a new bottle of tooth paste with Andy. Stupid security check at the airport. Got a general layout of the town. Later that night we went to a birthday party for the school director where I will be working during the school year. Wow (the party deserves it's own blog post but first I need to get the video. So give me a couple day's.

Woke up at 6:40 made Scotty style scrambled eggs. I still hadn't seen Tim Wood yet because he's been at missionary camp in the jungle. But we drove an 1.5 houts to see him and help with the day's activity's. The road into the jungle was terrible and had only about a 100 yard stretch of pavement the rest was clay that was semi carved into the side of a mountain. we had 9 people in one suburban in 95* heat and high humidity. AAAHHHH. Once at camp I help act in a drama. Only SPANISH. We left there and started to drive back when we got a flat tire. Of course the guy on the farm must have a lot of experience so make him do it. Besides he's the only one who has ever changed a tire. People please instill this quality in your children teach them to change a tire.
