Where am I now, you ask....

Go ahead guess what country I’m in…

A. Dominican Republic

B. United States

C. Honduras

D. Costa Rica

I’ll give you a clue…almost everyone speaks Spanish here. That’s right, I’m in Miami. We tried to go to Honduras on Wednesday, but we just couldn’t make it. Our plane got delayed because the pilot needed a certain amount of rest time between flights, and then we missed our connecting flight because of that. The folks in Washington decided to keep us in the U.S. since no one is sure when Zelaya will decide to come back to Honduras.

So until everything gets sorted out, we’re just going to be stuck livin’ it up in beautiful Miami. Peace Corps sure is a rough life with all the private king-sized suites, lounging around poolside, and South Beach clubs. Seriously though, we are pretty lucky to be here because we are able to keep practicing our Spanish everywhere we go. We’ve been having classes and sessions with a couple trainers that were sent here, so everything has been great so far. I would much rather be in Honduras, but I guess it’s nice to get another last dose of the U.S. before I live in a jungle for 2 years.


I posted some of the pictures from the Dominican Republic on facebook, so you can take a look at them here if you're interested.

Hope all is well with everyone back home. I miss you guys.
