Hola! I am in mexico and it is been great. it is very hot but i am enduring the heat. so far we have been doing some assigments that were given to us the first assigment they dropped us off in a colina and told us to find our way around and locate certain things and then got to the bus stop and make it to the plaza fiesta where we had to buy doughnuts and candy. Then we had to go to the marketplace and find frogs, marachi hats and a pancho. This was a lot of fun and we completed our assigment, then yestrday they assigned us to cross the border wgich was a nightmare we stood in aline and waited for 1 hour to cross. then we had to find the post office and some second hand stores. then we had to eat at churchs chicken. from this experince i saw that even though we were in america the restraunt was just like being in mexico. So far i have also played futbol (soccer) with some local kids and we have had alot of growth as a team. OUr housing for the guys is a two room house and we shared it with a local. we have to walk ten minutes to the church and the commuinty is really poor. Put i am exicted to see what God has in store for me so stay tuned for more of my journey.
