A few snippets and photos from our new home and what is like to live here:
buying fresh tortillas just about across the street, 2 for a Lempira
rain that is so loud on our tin roof that we can not even talk across the table during a storm
the many smiles and greetings that we get when we take Guillermo David out and about
the crib is extra protected- a mosquito net for mosquitoes, cups of liquid on each leg for ants and strategically placed to avoid leaks in the roof
washing clothes in the washer and hanging them to dry makes us feel very fortunate and sad when we see our neighbors carrying a bucket of water 5 blocks
getting used to new sounds: chickens, dogs, gun shots, buses, a traveling circus that was nearby for 2 weeks
getting to walk to work and eating lunch together at home
having youth stop by to say hello
observing the creative systems our friends have to trap the water from the gutters
after meeting a lot of people at the assembly last Sunday, we are running into more people we know on the street
Guillermo checks out Los Pinos from our roof
Our wash area, complete with a security gate, provides fresh air for the back of the house
Guillermo David gets his daily bath with bottled water as tap water is unsanitary
Spending time with friends in the hamaca in our back hallway
Our street
Entrance to our apartment
Favorite mode of transportation as there are few places to use a stroller
