Greetings from Tegucigalpa! It is 8:00 in the morning and it was SO wonderful to take a nice shower last night with not scorching hot or freezing cold water. We are staying at a wonderful hotel for only $20 a night and it is one of the nicest hotels I have ever stayed in!

So this Wednesday, a group of new volunteers came. We went to go pick up the girls staying with us and on the way there, a car almost hit us (going at probably less than 15 mph) and I said welcome to Honduras... Darcy, the sister laughed and said "no welcome to El Salvador" Which was funny because Honduras and El Salvador are the biggest rivals ever... The futbol game with them was INTENSE! Anyways... We have three new people staying in our house and there are altogether about 17 new volunteers. Lots of new people to meet and lots of new Gringo faces. It´s always nice to have more people to speak english with.

Thursday night, Clare and I danced with the family again... Literally all night... (well until 11PM which is really late here). Elvis, the cousin, who is an amazing dancer... was teaching Alan the little ten year old how to move his hips and it was quite hilarious and probably a bit inappropraite... Latin people can move their hips like no other! Really, its not human. Clare and I looked like fools.... But regardless, it was really fun. I have no idea what I´m going to do when I go to the US...

Yesterday, Clare and I woke up and hopped on a bus to head to the capital. We met up with my friend Patrick from UOP and got dinner with him. He set us up with an amazing hotel that I´m in right now and today we´re taking a hike on a mountain with a huge statue of Jesus that overlooks all of Tegucigalpa.

Anyways, I´m still alive, just thought I´d let everyone know... I only have 3 more days of work left, which means three more days left with the fam and it´s really depressing. As excited as I am to come home, I am dreading leaving the Morales family. They have taken really good care of us and have helped us become part of the family.
