It's a hard life

Thanks to Jen Cowan for this photo from our trip to the ocean at El Zonte. I don't get to loll in a hammock every day (though we do have one in the house, and it's an elegant place for naps on hot afternoons), but this photo tells you something that's probably already obvious to anyone reading my blog: I'm having a great time here. Yes, my Spanish still stumbles, it's hot, there are bugs, and last night I shared my room with a small black bat, but these, too, are adventures. There's always a new person to meet around the corner and a hammock waiting somewhere. I'm thankful.
