So now it is February 16th and I can't believe I have been here over a month now! There have definitely been some big ups and downs while I've been here but overall it's been pretty great. While I've been down here I've been exercising again and getting in shape like I use to be and I'm starting to look a lot better :) I'm also learning how to play guitar! I can play Wanted Dead or Alive by Bon Jovi, and Stuck like Glue by SugarLand and then I've been working on chords but it's way fun! I'm really enjoying it and finally I am making some progress and actually being able to play somewhat! This weekend we are going to see the pyramids!! I'm really excited! Check out how huge this one is!!

And yes those tiny little specs on the stairs and on the left in the open are people.

This is how it compares to the Great Pyramid of Giza!

Yeah I'm pretty excited to go see them on Saturday. I'm actually going with Jeremi and his Dad who will be in town, so it should be a really awesome trip!

Other exciting things...um...a lot of the students dressed up as characters a couple of days ago when they went out selling, and actually did a pretty good job of making their costumes! (I've been trying to upload a picture of them for like an hour but the dang computer doesn't like me and won't upload them. so i'll try to put them up later)

I've been teaching Danny, the bishop's son, English for two weeks now! He's a lot of fun and quite the handful, it's really hard to get him to focus on learning when all he wants to do is just talk. He kinda listens to me and will repeat the words I tell him to but I can tell that he really isn't paying any attention and just wants to play. So what we are doing is playing some baseball every Tuesday as a reward for studying and practicing his English! He really likes this idea, cause he absolutely loves baseball!

Till next time guys!
