Well, here it is Saturday the 8th of September. I have 2 weeks under my belt, that is I have taught 14 classes. Rosemary does not start until next Wednesday with the freshman. Below are some pictures of our apartment Rosemary took. Today we walked to a store called Metro, about a mile away I guess. They carry more international products that the Vanguard store that is where we usually stop. It was raining, but we did not let that slow us down. We took the other BYU couple with us. They arrived on Thursday and start teaching next week. We purchased CHEESE! we had grilled cheese for lunch and Rosemary cooked up some beans and a little meat and made homemade tortillas. We had burritos! Two things common at home but non-existent here. Below is a picture of the butcher. We could see in the cooler where the meat was hanging, the beef in quarters. When you want some meat you have the butcher cut it off the one he is working on. there was also some packages of meat. I bought a steel frying pan to cook in, I am excited. we cooked the tortillas in it. I work a little each day on either the lesson plan/powerpoint for the next week or reviewing homework. I have 196 students. I am just getting over diarrhea that I have had for a week. I am not eating much. Probably 1/3 to 1/2 as much as at home. I have lost a little weight. Hopefully the diet stays the same and I can loose some serious pounds the next few months. We will see.
