SETTLING IN

My classes are going very well.  I have a great teacher, who was a trainer for the Peace Corps many years ago, and has a very pleasant and patient disposition. I work with her every morning from 8-12, then on some days I will be doing two more hours with Bety.  I can already see why people come for a month and longer.  It is a nice, relaxed time, and the one on one learning is great.  This city is like a language school factory...there are schools one right after another on the streets, and new people coming in every day.  I will post school photos soon, but here are a couple of street scenes.  Two good friends strolling by the park, and a peanut vendor who is straightening his load after unsuccessfully trying to make a sale.
