Frozen Yogurt and New Shoes
This week I have a new Spanish teacher. Normally the teacher changes every week, but last week I had asked to continue with the same teacher. This week I decided to change, just to learn how different people work and talk. It has been a lot of fun, and I think I´m talking more with this teacher. Still, learning another language can be frustrating. Sometimes I wish it could be easier to get my point across.
Today after class and lunch we went on a longer walk over to the big shopping mall in town. My shoe broke during the weekend so we went to find another pair. The mall is pretty crazy, and really not my favorite place in Xela, but it is an interesting contrast. We stopped for a snack at a frozen yogurt store and it was amazing. It reminded me of the place in the ABC plaza in Kenya where we would get frozen yogurt. We also found a pair of shoes.
It is hard to believe we are almost half way done with our trip. In some ways it feels like we've been here a long time, in other ways it feels like we're barely getting started. I'm excited for this week because we are going to do a clinic at a school a little bit out of the city. I'm sure it will be another new experience…
