Rojo, a pool, and the Honduran President...

Megan and I made it back to SPS safely, in only 4 hours... and I successfully negociated my way around SPS in a taxi to get back to Mauricio and Ana. Since then we've been super busy. She leaves tomorrow morning already!

On Sunday night we visited a small village where Mauricio and others had planted a church and built houses after hurricane Mitch. David and Santiago skate boarded with the boys, and then we went to their church service in the evening.

Yesterday was did some odds and ends around the office, and then went to see Rojo in concert (rojoweb.com). Apparently they´re really big... who knows... I didn´t really understand any of their songs, but we were right up front, so I got some good pictures. It was a big free concert in a huge church that seats 15,000.... and there were tons of youth there. It was excited to see them all get passionate and sing along with Rojo.

This morning we went to a pool and just layed out and swam and ate lunch. It was amazing! I loved it. We went swimming at a hotel, and apparently the Honduran president was there giving a speech or something. There were media and police and the presidential helicoptor outside of the hotel... but, I didn´t get to see the president. I guess he didn´t want to talk with gringos. : (

Tonight we´re seeing Pirates of the Caribbean... for $1.25, because it´s half price night at the movies. We´re going on a hike at 6am tomorrow morning... to see all of San Pedro before Megan leaves. It will be beautiful, but I don´t think that the 5:30 wake up call will be so fun.

Today marks the day I´ve been here for a month... it honestly feels like 2 days. My church comes down on Saturday, and then it´s off to La Entrada, Copan with them for a week.

Happy Birthday, Elizabeth Mead!
