We arrived in Honduras on Monday with quite a bit of turbulence on my flight! Our first order of business was to drive 2 hours to Choluteca and go grocery shopping and eat at Pizza Hut. Following that we went to the ranch and got settled into our house. The view from our house is amazing, and it is pretty sweet to wake up to the sounds of cows mooing outside of our house. I am a huge fan of the little calves running around by the house. The past few days we have been travelling around seeing all the different places that Mission Lazarus works in, my favorite thus far has been the clinic that they have set up in the mountains. I am really looking forward to working there each week!
Tonight we have Spanish class which I am ready for, I want so badly to finally learn to speak Spanish! This morning we were shown around the ranch, and had morning devotions with all of the ranch hands. Hopefully, if the weather is nice we are planning on trail riding on Saturday which is going to be a blast with all of the interns! I am really looking forward to this summer with all of the interns, I already feel at home. Working in the clinic is probably going to be my favorite. Shelly told us that those of us who do clinic on Monday are going to be working in the pharmacy, telling the patients when to take their medicine and how much. My spanish speaking abilities are about to improve! Those are just a few of my first impressions, I am in love with living on a ranch in Honduras, and I honestly can´t think of a better way or place to spend my summer.

I just want to encourage you to write here as often as you can. There are some future interns and others who take a great interest in hearing what a day in Honduras is like for you. Good luck and take care - Mark Duncan - Franklin, TN.
