Here are some pictures for your viewing pleasure:
Here is part of the ¨road¨ going up to Loma de Ramos. The picture really doesn´t do it justice though.
Here is the church that is being built in Buena Vista. The first picture is from last week, and the second picture is from this week. They made some good progress in a week!
Since I arrived in El Salvador, everybody has very warmly welcomed me...except for one person: Emmanuel (Martina´s 1.5 year old grandson).
Sure he´s cute, but for the first couple of days he refused to even look at me! I was so looking forward to being able to play with him, but he didn´t want anything to do with me for almost a week. He wouldn´t let me hold him or play with him and would run to him mom or dad whenever I was around. We think that he just isn´t used to white people. Finally after more than a week he is letting me play with him, but he is still a little uncertain about me. He is fine when his mom or dad or grandma or grandpa are around, but if it is just me he´s still a little afraid. He is such a troublemaker! He is constantly getting into something or touching something he isn´t supposed to (e.g. the fans, the TV, the stove, the remote control). He is so entertaining though!
Especially the past few days I have been appreciating just how beautiful El Salvador is. The past two evenings we were driving home as the sun was setting and it was just gorgous. As we drive up and down the roads and the ¨roads¨ there are some incredible views of the mountians, volcanos, and the valleys.
