Some Pictures

So for those of you who don't believe that electric showers exist, this is my shower. And yes, those are wires sticking out behind it. And yes, we do get shocked on a regular basis. However, I'm just happy to have indoor showers and hot water.

This is the view of our town from the school. We live in paradise. La Unión has about 4,000 people, so it's a pretty small town.

This is the view from my classroom. Pretty fantastic.

We went to the Mayan ruins in Copan. They were not nearly as large as the ruins in Palenque, Mexico, but they were still pretty spectacular.

This is a picture of the main plaza in Copan.


Here are some pictures of my students when we went to a small town outside of La Unión in October for Children's Day. They organized games and brought candy for about 40 elementary students at the school. This is how Honduran field trips are done. Imagine taking students in the bed of your truck in the United States. The lawyers would love it.

This is how we hang piñatas in Honduras. That's a cement floor. And a student at the top.

These are a few of the students who went with me. We did face painting and all sorts of other fun stuff.

Hopefully I will be able to update with more pictures soon! I miss you all!
