On Tuesday we had a party to celebrate the end of the 2008 tour! My first fiesta in Mexico was fun, but it was also a learning experience. I am slowly learning small cultural differences such as how high you fill drinks and how you greet guests. It was fun to play with the kids and to meet new people (even if I didn't say much to my new friends...).
On Wednesday Suki and I began plans for our puppet show. At next weeks VBS we are going to present two skits that we have written. Writing the skits, translating them, and practicing the Spanish has taken a couple days. It will be fun to present them next week, but a little scary as well. Working at the VBS will be fun. I'm excited to be able to have time to develop relationships with the other teachers and the students next week. It will be one of my most challenging, but rewarding experiences since I have arrived.
