The Halfway Point

July 15th, 2006

I am writing this from Berthas (remember to pronounce her name BEAR ta) family room, which is on the second floor of her house. From here, I can see Kimo and Iago without Kimo trying to swallow my arm.

Today is the halfway point. In our class, we watched a movie called Nicotina, which was pretty good, and I recommend it. Then we joined the other classes and had a fiesta. The Level 5 class (all Spanish teachers, I am in Level 2) entertained us with a mock broadcast of a morning news program, complete with banter between host and hostess. Lots of fun. Tomorrow we leave for Mexico City to spend the weekend touring around and riding the infamously cheap and pickpockety subways. Monday, half the groups heads back to the U.S., as the program includes options for two or four weeks. Theyll be missed!
