I FORGOT TO POST ABOUT...

...THE EARTHQUAKE. I cannot believe I didn´t mention it (well can a little) because it wasn´t so major here in Xela. I felt the earth move (under my feet...he he)during lunch with my host family. They said it happens here often and not to worry about it. It wasn´t until Corinne told me that CNN had major news of its devastation. Apparently, some died and buildings were disrupted in the capital. I can assure you nothing like that happened here. We walk EVERYWHERE in Xela and I find that it´s a lot like a treadmill..when I stop I feel like I¨m still going. I had just stopped walking home from school and sat down, thinking that I was having that feeling, but when the table was moving and other students staying in the home mentioned they felt the room moving, we inquired.

All is well..the most we have to worry about here is staying dry!
