2nd week

well i had my first day of work on monday and got to work at the refuge which was pretty awesome. margot made me practice my spanish with her for like two hours while we waited for ally to arrive but i wasn't complaining. i need the practice. plus ally had to check on jaclyn who was super sick but she's ok now! we've also gotten to do a lot of work with a group from Huntsville called Mayfair. they're all really nice and i was privileged to go on a medical brigade with them on two seperate occasions. however, the second was by far, the best. why? you ask? because on the way back it started to monsoon and before we knew it the river was massive and we couldn't cross it to get into the ranch. so we had to abandon our vehicles (including el jefe which was a very sad parting) and hike back around the river. i also forgot to mention there was a bridge the mayfair group got to walk across and jarrod picked them up in small groups to take to the posada. but us interns made the journey. it was a whale of a hike. needless to say after an hour of climbing mountains and crossing rapids we were pretty excited to finally be home. only then did we discover our house had been filled with water which we then proceeded to eliminate. all in all it was a pretty awesome day. i know honduras will find some way to top it with another adventure de los interns!
