First Day of School

Today was the first day of school. I think it went pretty well. I only saw 7th and 8th grade today but the kids did alright. The class period flew by. I have each of the classes for an hour and a half. The lunch we were given at the school was good too. I think I can eat it for a year. I'm teaching P.E. to the 4th grade tomorrow in the first period, should be a good time. I didn't take this picture today, but I wore that same shirt today... so there you go. If I had taken a picture of me today, it would have looked a lot like this.

Chilling on the Big Friendly Bed



So this past weekend we headed down to the lake for some relaxation. We caught a bus to the bus terminal outside of San Pedro and then down to the lake. We stayed at a hostel called D & D Brewery. We got there Friday and spent the night just kinda hanging out. We pushed our beds together in our room (Me, Tim, Jenna, Tyler and Alison) and formed the Big Friendly Bed, equipped especially for some great late night pillow talk. Saturday was an awesome day. We woke up and caught a bus down to a waterfall. For 100 Lemps we go a guide who led us down into the waterfall. We jumped rocks and into a pool. The guide took us in two groups. The water was pounding so hard it was difficult to see at times. We climbed rocks behind the water once under it, and then proceeded to climb into a small cave. I honestly couldn't keep from smiling the entire time it was going on. It was an incredible experience. We spent the rest of the day swimming. The next day we walked down to the lake. We ended up swimming in a section of the lake that had this old bridge that Tim and I jumped off of. It was a great day. We came back monday.
