We recently acquired a Nicaraguan "daughter", an international student at Reedley College who will be living with us for nine months! We decided to convert our Peace Corps blog into a blog about our experience with her. Read about our adventures, mishaps, and other funny things that happen throughout this experience.

Hurricane Paloma
Not much exciting has happened this week. We both had our Peace Corps project managers come out for a site visit. They both went well and we got a free dinner out of it so that is always good. People here, Hondurans as well as others, are happy that Obama will be the next president. Kevin was supposed to go with the university kids out to the east on the edge of the Biosphere but because Hurricane Paloma was hanging around there yesterday and the day before, they decided not to go but now Paloma is heading toward Cuba so it probably would have been ok. They will go next Friday though. By the way Paloma means dove or pigeon. Most of you back in the States had a time change, we did not so now we are the same as the Central Time Zone, two hours ahead of California. We really didnt have any rain all week, which was nice, but some places are already getting pretty dusty in Catacamas.
