Saturday we spent most of the day in the city walking through the open-air market. We bought a couple of dvd’s to give to the girls of our host family. Both dvd’s cost us a total of $4. When we got back to the house Cindy and two of the girls watched both movies.
We also went to our favorite study place, McDonalds, to work on our Spanish. We were sitting outside in the Jardin (Garden) and Cindy had her bags sitting on the chair beside her. She saw something moving in the corner of her eye and reached down to grab her bag because it looked like it was falling off the chair. When she grabbed her bag she also grabbed two fingers of a girl standing behind us who was trying to steal Cindy’s bag. It surprised her so much that the girls were gone before she had time to react. We didn’t even notice the girls were behind us because we were looking at our books studying. The mother of the house where are staying told us about the time she was walking through the open-air market and little girl came up and tried to steal her cell phone out of the pouch on her waist.
Just can’t ever relax. You have to always be aware of who is around you.
Brad was excited Saturday night when he found the Final Four on the TV. It was little fuzzy but it was still good. Especially since UCLA and UNC lost.
Sunday we ate lunch in town, studied some in the park and McDonalds (with a close watch on our bags), and headed to the house. About 6:00 pm we decided we wanted some supper so we walked back to town and got Subway sandwiches to bring home and eat while we studied.
Cindy has been wanting to ride in a tuk-tuk (see picture) since we got Honduras so we took our first tuk-tuk ride back to the house.
