Things are finally looking up around here! People are getting better. Jessica is fighting a sinus infection and an upper respiratory infection. But after the past few days that is nothing!
Today Monica, Katie, and I went to the American Embassy to get tickets for a 4th of July picnic that they put on for the Americans in the area. We will get to eat Ballpark hot dogs and real hamburgers!! Since the hamburgers here are a strange sausage type patty and the hot dogs are UNSPEAKABLE we are beyond excited! Not to mention that there is a chance we can get Dr.Pepper! When we got to the embassy we were told to come back in 2 hours. So two hours and a very good lunch later we got our tickets!
Last night we had 4 students in the advanced class and 8 in the intermediate class. We were very happy with the turn out. Monica and Jessica should have fun with their class, 4 of the students know very basic English. They are going to have to split their class into 2 groups to teach their lessons.
Sounds like things are going good at the house. Thankfully I get to call home just about everyday. Between Vonage and Skype I am able to call for free! PTL!! It has been a blessing to get that encouragement.
Tonight we are going out with some students to try and find some more contacts. We are hoping that we can find people to begin relationship building at this school like we were able to do at the last school.
