I thought I'd share this trip with people to see if everyone could get to Snapfish from here.On Sunday, we woke up early and went to explore the botanical gardens of a nearby hotel duPloy's. It is an incredibly beautiful place and I wish I could remember more names, but they all allude me at this time. After going through a beautiful tour, we had lunch. The whole trip, we were accompanied by some Galen students. Ashante, Lizbet, Carmin, and Soloman. They were very fun to talk to and I was able to sit with them all at lunch and hear their perspective on Belize. There are some up coming elections that our program directors are worried about, but most people here don't believe they will be violent. The government is so corrupt here, people just accept it and move on. They say they don't recieve the right money they should, while the administration spends thousands on themselves and their campaigns. not much different than the U.S it seems....anyways, after lunch we did a service project. I helped mix soil and sift out compost. It was very fun and we got to talk with our guide from the morning.After, we got to swim in a nearby river.Here is the link to snap fishhttp://www2.snapfish.com/photolibrary/owned_view=owned_2008/t_=102317660enjoyToday we started school. I had to get up just before 7 to make the 745 bus. Breakfast takes a while so we cant linger in bed. Classes were fun. I had "Dr. Jay" teaching my first, business law class. It was very interesting to see what we would learn this semesterI wont bore you with much about classes, it was a pretty typical school like day. Lunch, though, I had rice and beans and a frozen chocolate banana, yum!I hope you are all enjoying the cold, I hear Vermont just got dumped on a bit. Enjoy the extra inches while looking at my sunny winter :-)
