New Pictures...

Here are some photos of both my town, and of the city of Tela, where I spent last Saturday with some friends...


The rainy season has begun...here´s a photo of a storm rolling in.


Here´s a pic of the main street in Tornabé, complete with a gimp pig that drags it´s 2 feet behind him to get anywhere. I think it should be put of out its misery, but apparently not.


This is the house I was supposed to live in, right on the Calle Principal (main street)



This is the front view of my disco that I chose to live in...don´t worry, the piles of cement make great fun for the kids to play in. Plus, the back side of the house is the Caribbean, so you can´t beat that.



The following are all views of Tela from the sweet hotel we stayed at...








And finally, signs I put up for my English classes in town .For those of you Spanish-speakers, you can´t comment on the errors...they are signs for English classes anyway!



I´ve been able to be on the internet more often the past few days because I´m helping my project director organize a capacitation for volunteer counterparts, which requires me to come into Tela to use the services here (printing, copying, faster internet, etc)

Hope everyone´s well!

Hey Anna,

Like the pics. Sounds like things are going well in Tornabé. What's the name of the hotel in Tela where you stayed? I'm heading out there in a few weeks. Thanks!

Cheers,

Raphael

Hey, I found your blog on the PC blog listings... I've been nominated for Health Extension Feb 2008 for *somewhere* in Latin America and want to get a better idea of what life's like &yours is one of the better blogs (not to mention I was in Honduras/Tela four years ago and loved it). Just thought I'd let you know that I'm reading :)

Anna,

Your dad sent me your blog URL. I'm fascinated by what you're doing.

I sent some books and a DVD that I had on the shelf via USPS today. I hope they get there.

Take care of yourself.

PS - I don't monitor the google email address anymore. Your dad has my current email address if you want it.
