Leah's Here!

Leah made it to Honduras yesterday! I met her in La Ceiba at about 6:30 after spending the day with my friend Monica. Monica and I went shopping at a thrift store (I bought a cute sun dress) and got some coffee and caught up on the past few weeks! It was so nice to see her and we made a bunch of plans for this coming weekend.

I was very very excited to see Leah step off the bus! We talked for a minute and then grabbed a taxi to El Porvenir. She had a very smooth easy trip here, so to give her a nice (accurate) welcome, I picked a taxi that broke down on the way home. We sat on the side of the road next to the pineapples for about 20 minutes while he called his friend to help us. We debated the whole time whether or not we should try to grab another taxi, but it was dark and a bit scary so we chose not to. Luckily he got his car started up and (barely) got us home.

We had a full day of teaching and exploring and beaching today. We did two classes and two private lessons together and I showed her around the village and introduced her to the other volunteers. It didn't rain today! Imagine that! So it was a really nice day.

We haven't had dinner yet, so this will be a short post. And dinner should be interesting because Leah is allergic to eggs and milk, doesn't eat bananas and doesn't really like avocados (among other things).

I'll update soon!
