Life abroad: As Robert sees it

Here it is, our new home! It took us about 2 weeks of walking around asking people if they had a house for rent before we finally got a break. It is in a great neighborhood right around the corner from the gym with a pool. Which means it’s time to start working off all those bean burritos by swimming laps. Now all we have to do is find some plastic furniture and we’ll be moved in. We have a great family with 3 kids that live in the front house. I am already practicing my spanish with them and will be playing chess with the grandfather this weekend. The only problem is there is no free WiFi internet to tap into.

Our mini kitchen with matching stove and fridge

Our dinning table

Our bedroom with a view of the avocado tree

And our flushed toilet without yellow hard water stains

This week was all about Rotary and getting to know our local club here in La Ceiba. Tuesday we attended our weekly meeting and met an American couple who retired here to start up an orphanage. Then the highlight of our week, we found a house without a single scorpion in it. We also sent two of our workers over to Trujillo for three days of training in how to make filters. Saturday day we went to ‘help’ at a Rotary workshop teaching other clubs in the district how to write grants. Then that night we attended the fundraiser dinner and had a Rotary friend invite us to join him and his family for their Sunday outing.
