Living the high life

The other day we ended up going out for a "nice" dinner here. That wasn't the plan when we left, we were just looking for some food. When our dinners came to over $10 a person, we wern't exactly prepared to pay the bill. None of the 6 of us. So Rufus kindly walked back to his place to get money for everyone else. Now really, why would we plan on needing more than 200 Limperias in a night? And that included a beer, soup, bread, pasta, and dessert. I love Honduran prices. Even cheaper than Antigua.

The weather has gone from hot and sunny on Sunday to much cooler yesterday (60's?). Today was cool, rainy in the morning, and very windy all day at the open-air school. Stuff was blowing all around. The room next to us needed to straighten a picture on the wall, and upon moving it, realized the back of it was crawling with ants. And so were the backs of the ten or so other pictures on the wall. The kids had a great time taking them all outside to clean off and promptly stomped on the hundreds of ants on the cement. It was kind of gross seeing the cement slab caked with dead ants. But not to worry, the local chickens quickly found their way to the school and helped themselves to dinner. The kids had fun, the walls and pictures got cleaned, and los gallos got fed. I love how things come together here.
