We will be flying out Monday morning from the capital of Honduras, Tegucigapla. We will go there by bus Saturday or Sunday.
The picture of Jordon and I with coconuts is from the coast which we visited this last weekend. It is great being able to go anywhere by bus very cheaply. It was great to explore another little city and it was also nice becuase we stayed with a couple that our host paretns know. The one downside to the trip was that I didn't apply sunscreen regularly enough and am still suffereing the consequences! On the coast many of the people are from another people group, Garfunas with much darker skin and most speak another language which apparently is more related to English than Spanish (not that I could understand it). We had the chance to talk to a few people in Tela (the coastal city) and it was nice to hear about the goings-on in that community. (For example oen guy we talked to kept talking abotu this one guy who never showers and everyone avoids.)
The second picture is me with a group of children from a school i volunteered at today. It is an after school program for low income students. Jordon cut some of the boys hair while I played games and generally entertained different groups, I also helped some with their homework.
You do look a little red in the 2nd photo. Is that at the Scripture Union school? Glad you had a chance to work there as well.
