Callie and I have been morning people this past week, since the sun rises so early, but we are getting used to the bright mornings now and can sleep in almost to seven!
Our first morning we were set loose with a page full of directions and places to go. Our friends called it The Amazing Race! We ran all over the city, trying to orient ourselves to where we were. We frustrated some people as we tried to buy lunch, but we ended up with food so all was good.
By day two we were able to buy fruit from road side stands! (Right now we are enjoying some lovely peaches... yum yum!) It was my birthday and we had a lot of fun with some of the business students here.
Day three we made a local friend who says she'll teach us some of the language.
The past few days one of our American friends has been showing us around and teaching us some important phrases to know and little cultural tidbits. It is so nice to have someone who has been here a while to help us!
Callie and I start teaching English clubs tomorrow! We are excited to be working with the locals and hopefully we can become friends and learn about their culture!
