We've also had some time to just chill out and decompress this week, which has been great. We had a fourth of July part a few days early because some were headed to site the next day. We scarfed on hot dogs, burgers, baked beans, potato salad, and good salsa and chips, awesome! Http:/ www.flickr.com/photos/peacecorps20a/. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

In essence, the longer you stay in a place with a culture foreign to your own, the more you realize how little there is you actually do know. Whaddya think of that one? The la...
