Vacation!

This post is puras fotos!

My house!  Still looking pretty.  I love that flowers bloom all year round (even if I miss how pretty spring is at home).

The people of Quebrada Pastor decided to use their most significant leverage with the government – the highway upon which we are located – to petition for two more teachers at our school, since our art and religion teachers from last year were moved to different schools.  Roadblocks are a popular way of getting the government’s attention (as I also remember from working in Cruce de Blanco in the Dominican Republic with Engineers Without Borders when I was in college).


Matt came to visit me again!  Willy gave him a tour of the chocolate-making process, so Matt got to crack open cacao pods with a machete, just like I did back in September – and see the process all the way through to completion.



Vacation begins!  And much-needed after all the excitement from the beginning of the month.  Boquete is beautiful!!







And we ran into Nick, a fellow Peace Corps Volunteer from my group, also on vacation, with his parents, in Boquete!


Playa Las Lajas -- also very pretty -- great waves and beautiful sandy beach.
