Today was the first real day of activities for the students, I took a small group of students in to town to show them important locations; the bank, post office and pharmacy. On the way back we took a walk through the local market. It was bright and full of produce. We also had a tour of Cahal Pech which was fun.Cahal Pech is a Maya site in San Ignacio, about 10 minutes from where we are staying. It was a great way to introduce the layout of Maya sites to the students. Dr. Jaime Awe gave the tour which was lucky for us because he has excavated the site for over 20 years now. He is highly respected and well known in the Maya world. I will be including pictures of both activities but I'm not sure how they will show up. You will have to guess which picture is which but it shouldn't be too hard!
The bugs have been biting but it isn't too bad. Tonight I came home to a giant jungle spider on the wall. Bleh. Killed him with my boot. Ahhh, Belize!
Tomorrow should be a fun day, there are different activities planned. Hopefully I will be able to take and post more pictures soon!
Goodnight for now,
♥ Steph
