A Day in Chimborango!

Hola! Saturday was a little out of the ordinary for me, but I absolutely loved it. Lori, one of my fellow teachers, invited me to join her on a trip to a small town outside of the city. The purpose was to go to a little craft show type of thing and also to visit a Chilean family that she's friends with.

I really enjoyed spending time with the family. I have been praying about and desiring more opportunities to be around Spanish and this was one opportunity that the Lord provided. We sat around and talked for quite a while, ate lunch with the family (about 3:30), and played some SkipBo with them before we left. They were so friendly! It was fun to try to talk with them.

Before I left, their little boy asked if there was any gift that he could give me. I just didn't know how to respond... especially in Spanish. Thankfully Lori helped me out! So they sent me away with a handful of roses from their garden.

I look forward to visiting with them again!
