If it's true that pictures are worth 1,000 words then this is my longest post to date. Truthfully, I'm too lazy to write a legitimate blogpost but too stubborn to not post on my schedule. Compromises must be made.
Here's the proof: I made it to the Pacific Ocean. From left to right Sarah, me, and Marvin pose after we entered the clear, warm water.
Here's a great picture of me and Paola. She is married to Marvin and has let us into her world of amazing work with the people in Vallecillo. She runs meetings and teaching personal finance lessons to people who can't read. She also likes to go to the mall.
This beaming woman is Marvin's mom--Aida. We met her when she visited Marvin in San Isidro a few weeks ago but didn't get to spend much time with her because she only stayed for a day. Luckily we stayed at her house in Tegucigalpa on Saturday night on the way back from the Pacific Coast.
There's Doña Aida again, along with her husband and her 3 newly adopted "nietos" (grandchildren).
Here was one surprise benefit of staying at Marvin's family's house in Tegucigalpa--their rooftop deck. What seemed like a regular house in a regular neighborhood turned out to be one of the most breathtaking views of my trip. This is looking into the city at night.
And here's the same scene, but the next morning.
Since this was my last week in San Isidro before coming home it meant a lot of sad goodbyes. Sad goodbyes also meant great photo ops. Here's me with my Honduran abuela, Doña Hilda.
You might remember Darlin Giselle from an earlier post (she's the girl with "sangre mala"). Here she is on the night before I left.
