I have been trying to blog at least a little bit each day, to keep people updated. Plus, I just really enjoy it.
However, that didn't happen this weekend. This weekend was despidida (farewell) weekend for the departing volunteers. This is usually a pretty big deal, as the folks that are leaving have been at the Ranch for at least a year. As is traditional, we spent the weekend enjoying ourselves in Tegus.
One of the nice things about living in a country like Honduras is that you can afford to do things that you could never afford in the U.S. For example, this weekend we stayed at one of the nicest hotels in Tegus, for a whopping 25$/night. The president of the Honduran Congress was also staying there.
It was wonderful! I slept on a real mattress. Laid by the pool. Watched television in English. Ate something besides rice, beans, and chicken.
The very best part? I took a hot shower. Actually, I took two. It was amazing!
