Today we took the kids to the lake, which they choose to call "the beach", which I guess it does resemble, but it is nowhere I would like to swim. There is a lot of trash and pollution around there since that's where all the streams of water and sewage funnels out, which leads me to wonder what is in the water, so I chose to be an observer rather than a swimmer. In this picture, one of the kids from our class is graciously posing with the white foam-like substance she brought back from the water. I think this foam is actually a relatively normal thing in the ocean (correct me if I'm wrong?), but this foam from the beach here seemed to last longer than usual. I don't know. Call me paranoid (since I am. I know) but it didn't look good to me.
Anyways, an enjoyable day in the heat where the kids went in the water for hours. Anita and I snacked on all of the food we bought. All in all, a success. It was my last day with the class, sadly. Tomorrow we are off to Leon, another town here in Nicaragua, since apparently we have run out of time to do everything we want to do. We are rushing so many things this week. Have to see it all! Stressed! So ambitious, that we are even thinking of another attempt at Masaya. I know. Crazy talk. This time though, we are going to have the lady who cleans the office come with us - she volunteered to help us and is the sweetest lady.
And now I will awkwardly end this post, since I don't know how else to. Concluding sentences are difficult. I was never good in English class.
