Tonight we are leaving for Iguazu falls, which promises to be a very long but beautiful trip. We're traveling overnight and apparently the bus provides us with hot meals and wine with dinner so I'm all for that. The plan is to travel all of tonight and part of tomorrow, arrive at the hotel and swim and go hot tubbing and such, then Saturday take a tour of Iguazu and see how beautiful it is. Sunday we'll be visiting an Aborigine community called Aldea guaraní M'Borore. I'm really ready to go exploring since this week has been 80% schoolwork. Monday I have a midterm too so it's getting intense. This weekend will definitely be fun and I'll be posting pictures of course.
It's around 50 degrees here during the day now, which is nice when the sun's out. Everyone wraps their scarves around their faces and acts like it's -20 below, which is pretty funny. The dogs on the street are still making me very happy, although they also make me miss Dexter and the kitties back home. I'm still not sure if I should pet them or not, so I don't.
It's getting about time to do laundry, considering I have one shirt left after this weekend. I just really don't want to drag my bag of clothes all over the city for little Asian women to wash and dry and fold...I'm going to have to get over it though otherwise I'll start stinking and I definitely don't want that.
I hope everyone is enjoying the warmth back home and still thinking about me often! 6 more weeks :)
xoxoxo besos!

Al,
ReplyDeleteYour blog is the highlight of my day. I try to check it often. So glad to hear your day to day is moving forward as you had hoped. Periods of intense learning and activity are so exciting and also tiring. They say youth is wasted on the young, not so in your case, you are the exception to the rule. Love you to infinity, Dad
PS. Praying for you and your sissy every day. Gpa White tried to call you and he was concerned about the international rates and him causing you to have an expensive call on your bill. I tried to reassure him that if the call didn't go through or voicemail picked up that it couldn't be a great deal. I told him we could work it out when you get home. (He'll likely forget about it.)
PPS. The day to day here revolves around work. I did get to go dirt bike riding last night though. :]
Aloha
