Last Week in Copan!

It is our last week in Copan! Things haven´t been too eventful. This weekend we went swimming and some of us just hung out. On Sunday morning we went to the Mayan Ruines. That was really cool to see. I took a lot of pictures. Yesterday we had a free morning. I went and bought a new shirt that I found that I really liked. I had found it last week so I figured that since I waiting to buy it and I still wanted it that it would be a decent buy. I´m excited.

So I haven´t been feeling too well lately. Headaches and a twisted up stomach. It´s not fun but our host family is definitely taking good care of me. Our mom told Kori that us American´s have really delicate stomachs. We had eaten out twice on Sunday, and I felt sick Monday morning. So our mom said that we need to eat there. They always wash their food and nobody usually gets sick. I´m pretty sure eating out is what made me sick. Yesterday for lunch my family made me soup and fresh squeezed lemonade. Apparently lemonade is good for the stomach when your sick. It was good and I did feel better after. I am wondering if I´m pushing myself too hard. We went to the pool this morning and of course I wanted to go. I didn´t feel so hot after. I may just be exhausted. I don´t know.

The rest of this week should be good. Tonight we´re having a girls night, we´ll be going to a cafe downtown that apparently has this really good mocha type coffee drink. It´s like a mocha shake but it has coffee grinds in it. Definitely looking forward to it. Tomorrow evening we are going to the Hot Springs. I´m looking forward to that. It should be refreshing, the only hesitation is that it´s already hot enough... Cool Springs would be nice. Thursday and Friday are pretty free days. I´m not sure that we have much planned. We are trying to see if after we take our Spanish test on Friday we can go to the pool with all our teachers and stuff. We will see how that works out.

We leave Copan on Saturday around 2. I like Copan but I´m ready to be on the move again. We´ll be traveling with MCC for a few weeks. I have no idea what type of internet access I will have. Hopefully I can post a new blog before we leave Copan. We will be heading back to San Pedro Sula for a few nights then off we go. It´s hard to believe that we have been here for two weeks. I feel like it´s been a lot longer but I´m definitely enjoying my time here.

I got to Skype my parents for ten minutes last Thursday and I Skyped luke on Sunday. Made me miss them more, but it was definitely good to see them or hear them a little. I enjoyed it for sure.

I have class in 15 minutes. Class is going well. It´s still intimidating and I´m always told that I understand a lot but I speak very little. That is a true statement. I don´t know why I don´t like to speak it but I just don´t. I´m trying though.

Time to go, hoping that I can give more exciting updates :-p... it´s good though that everything is going well and it´s been low key.

Until Next Time
