Long time no blog

hi its been a while...so much has hapened since i last wrote... we have been continuing w classe and i have been learning so much. but more importantly we are having a lot of fun too. i went to a quinceñera which was a mixture betweeen a bar mitzvah and a wedding, extremely over the top but a ton of fun. i also went to this waterfall that filtered inot three pools each one getting progreseivley dirtier but it was a blast. my host sister also had a birthday with a piñata and one of the best cakes i have ever seen. we are also doin a lot of activities with our group like a pancake dinner and movies. we have really become close and it will be sad to leave them.
the food here is also really good, sugary and fried, but good. there is an underground frozen treat trade where random houses will put signs outside there house and sellfrozen juice/popsicles in bags and frozen chocolate bananas for the equivalent of five cents. i am addicted
yet i think these may have put me in the hospital. this weekend i spent two days in the hospital being pumped with ivs becuase i had a bacterail infection and ameobas. but it wasnt too bad and i got to take a warm shower and watch soccer all day and i am doing great nopw
all of honduras has soccer feverand our team is doing really well. we plan to project the game were we will beat mexcio onto a huge wall and all watch together but who knows if we can do it, never the less i cant wait.
yet my time here is coming to a end. on the 15th i go back to zarabanda and the 17th i findout where i will be for the next two years and what ill be doing and then go there on the 25th. i cannot wia tot get to my site and start working!!!!
sorry i havent been able to updat this blog more often but get used to it cuz it hard to get to the internet. hope everyone is doing well and i miss you all

  1. Dear Josue:

    I am so glad to hear you are enjoying the life there. Sorry about getting sick it must have been really scary. What was the hospital like? I picture it as something like the hospitals I remember from my childhood in Rhodesia.

    I would have loved the frozen treats. Did you teach them about frozen skittles? They probably do not have skittles but something like that.

    Hope you get a nice place to go to in the end but I am confident that where ever they send you, you will find it the perfect place! Josue I truly wish more of us could be like you. Please do not change!

    Have fun, make the most of each and every day but most of all be safe and remember we all love and miss you.

    Love
    Lyn
