Yesterday I bought a candied apple. It was super sugary. Like eating an apple and half a cup of corn syrup. But delicious. The greatest part was that it cost one quetzal. US$0.125. Did I already mention the one quetzal frozen bananas? Those are good, but this melted-sugar-and-sprinkles-covered-apple is even better. And yes, that purchase is exciting enough to deserve the first topic of my blog.
This week Alexis´s favorite window cutter, Juan, returned to the God´s Child Project. I think he´s here as a service team with his family, and every time I look at him I can only think of Alexis and her great love for and appreciation of helper Juan.
Tomorrow I am going to Monterrico, a little town on the Pacific coast. Alicia (another volunteer who lives in my house) and I are spending the weekend. The forecast is sunny with black sand beaches and a chance of sea turtles (Leaders in a half shell!). I have never seen the Pacific Ocean. I am excited.
haha.."Turtle Power"! Enjoy your time at the beach.
