3 weeks in.

Well, we're three weeks into the school year. Last week we peaced out of Cofradia and went up to Tela in northern Honduras. It's a beautiful coastal town. We hung out on the beach for two days, building fires and swimming in the water. On Wednesday we had Dia del Nino. I don't understand the concept of this day as there are 364 days a year that celebrate children. The day was all about the kids running wild around the school. There was a parade today through the streets as it is their independence day. For the last few days we have been practicing at the school with the kids, having them march. So today we marched through the streets with the kids. Yesterday Tim and I went into the mountains with a local family who owns a farm up there. We picked wild lemons, tangerines, sugar cane, bananas and coffee. We roasted some coffee and grounded it.
