World Fair Day and etc.

And the rain continues.  I thought it was supposed to be done by now?

After a month and a half I finally got some shelves.

And finally got my curtains together.

I am trying a yoga class.

The room is beautiful and I love the paintings.  The whole restaurant/hotel is amazing.

Of course it has a view of the volcano.

I have been wanting to try this cafe close to my house. They have strange hours and seem to always be closed when I have free time, but today they were open.  It's a unique place- a cafe / museum.  The big things by the door are old movie reels.  It was kind of like having coffee in an antique shop.

Country Day!

Each grade picked a different country to study and present.  1st grade had China.  The kids were so excited to do Social Studies and really got into it!

1st grade had awesome parents bring food and volunteer!

 

5th grade's Italy project
  

 A few more pictures I got from other people:

Hope the videos work!
10th grade Greek dance

9th grade Indian dance

Earth Lodge, etc.

Last weekend some of the teachers went to Earth Lodge for the day.  It's a place where you can come to eat, camp overnight, or just hang out. 

More beautiful sky pictures!

They are also an avocado farm.

There are a variety of housing options.  This is the tree house.  There's even a sign warning occupants that the swaying of the tree is normal and no cause for alarm.

I get to work with these ladies!

The perfect panorama for the "fish eye" setting on my camera!

Some food pictures from Azucena:

We had a typical dinner at the house.  Eggs, beans, fried plantains (my favorite!), and cream.  Mmmmm...

We tried a very typical restaurant close to our house.

I got Caldo de Pollo, which is Chicken Soup.  I ate the rice, avocados, and onions/cilantro separately, but later saw a Guatemalan guy dump everything into the soup.  Now I know for next time.
