Clouds

I remember as a kid looking at the clouds and imagining, and seeing other objects/characters and so on. Right before I left Michigan I remember driving home from Grand Rapids and thinking we must of been very creative as kids to be able to see objects and imagining them being dogs, or cats, or cartoons, but now that I have been down here the clouds are so different then what they are in Michigan. Looking at them now here I let the creative juices flow and try to see other objects. The clouds here are amazing and I think I could spend an entire day watching them roll in.

Finally a day at the beach

After spending a week at the orphanage it was time for a break. We ended up catching a ride into the capital with the director of the orphanage where Kristin was able to make it to the teacher store and drool over everything she wished she had in her classroom here. I went to the tile store to look for new tiles for the new volunteer house and got some prices. After that we had the opportunity to check out Price Smart and buy some peanut butter and jelly, and some corn flakes since we get free bread and milk at the orphanage along with lunch and dinner if we want but its usually just Yuka, or rice and milk and sugar. So we thought we would get some necessities. Then the directors dropped us off in Juan Dollio a small beach town about 12 km from our orphanage which is a great place to hang and spend some time away. We found a cheap hotel that gives us a special discounted rate $12/night which is pretty good, and is about 1/2 mile from the beach.
