otra dia en Mexico

so i´m at an internet cafe right now with some other girls (staff) and i never really thought about the fact that the keyboards would be different in a different country, they are! haha anyway. my weekend was really fun. the staff decided to go camping. we drove about an hour and then stayed at a ¨camp site¨ - it was a place on the side of the road haha, it was a lot of fun. we slept right next to the ocean. it was gorgeous. we were next to this place called the la bufadora its where the water hits the side of the ¨cliff¨ and shoots up really high. that morning we also saw dolphins and whales. it was really cool. i´ll try to get pictures up eventually. sunday we went up to the states and listened to Brad speak at Eddie´s(director) church. orginially eddie was going to but then switched so we went and then we picked up the next group. they are still here. they´re from wisconsin. one of the girl staffer´s family, friends, and community. and this weekend we have orientation so we wont be able to go to church this weekend either so i haven´t had that experience yet.

i had my third bulid today. it went a lot better then yesterday. Hayley (staff) put me in charge of the side walls on a 12x16 and i had one measurement off an inch and it screwed that up so we had to pull up the plywood. kinda annoying but its okay i made sure i learned from my mistakes today. by the end of this week is when i should be leading. i´ll find that out tomorrow at the staff meeting. the whole group is here now. i love the girls and the guys are cool too. i´m just trying to stay open and teachable and just love others.

I definetly agree about the coffee shop. It is sweet and when I say sweet I mean the latte that I had there once was really really sweet.
