Well Miss Julie Wilson came down to visit me for a two weeks and WOW what a trip. Here is a picture of here after she got off the plane. Sorry about the wierd face, sometimes I do that without realizing that sometimes it would be nice to have a good picture.
After she got into San Jose, we stayed a day in town and just checked out the mall and had dinner. Then that night we went to a Salsa Club, a huge one with a huge dance floor, but found out that on Monday nights no body goes. So Julie and I had the entire dance floor to ourselves for the whole night. It was a blast. The next day we went to a beach town called Cahuita. It was amazing. The whole town was like Jamaican and everyone spoke a little English and Spanish. We went to the beach, layed in hammocks, and read. One day though we we in the jungle right off the beach on a nature trail, and Donny got a little too close to a tree and pretty soon a troop of monkeys started wooping and hoolering and since it was almost closing time anyways, we ran as fast as we could back to the entrance of the park.
After Cahuita we went back to my hometown, San Juaquin, so that Julie could see where I am volunteering, what I am doing, and who my family is. She got along great with the family, and I tried my best to translate everything. We went swimming in the river on day, attended an English class of one of the other volunteers here, and read alot. Also Julie helped me work on my Community Service Project, to refinish some tables and chairs in the Cafeteria. It was fantastic.
Now Julie is back on a plane back home and I am getting ready to catch the bus back to my home. Only a few more weeks and then I will be back in the United States. Hard to believe all this time has gone by so fast. It has been fantastic, but I think I will be ready to get back to Family, friends, and my cars and toys.
