alright soo we left our volunteer project yesterday and now offically on our adventure tour! Sooo while volunteering we accomplished half a fence for a park, mind you the fence looks super cool! its built out of these tree branches where if you plant them they grow back into trees!! ok so we didn´t do very much english teach, i only went to the school twice once to teach english and a second time to paint skirts for a festival that started the day after we left!! we also monitored some whales which was pretty sweet, we´re going whale watching again tomorrow so by the end of this we´ll be expert whale watchers haha. the whales are super huge!! last time one jumped super close and got the boat sprayed!!!!
We left our host family today, and if you read julias blog i can now tell you that hammock man has a purpose!!! those seahorses he randomly put on the fridge while we ate one day got painted and they gave them to us when we left. The night before they took out a HUGE box of family pictures and we went through all of them! most of them were baby pictures of Lugi, the 13 year old boy in the house, haha. As we were looking through them the power went out! not for long though cause it came back on in a few minutes.
ok soo my project leader, daneill, got dengue half way through our volunteer project. its bascially machalilla´s form of malaria. he basically just slept and went to the doctors for the week and is now going home so he can recoup. buuut anywayss on a better note i went surfing yesterday and it was super funn!! our instrucor was soo funny and played out the whole surfing and wave thing in the sand. and i´m about to go get some banana pancakess!!! real americanish foodd!!! i can´t wait!!!
