Sun, Sand, and Scuba!

We just got back from a fabulous week on the Caribbean island of Roatan, Honduras.

We've got lots to share, but for now the pictures will have to do the talking. Check them out HERE.

We'll have a nice long recap of our week on the Caribbean island learning how to scuba dive with our friends, Jack and Jen, either tomorrow or some time next week when we're back in the States.

Finally...the pictures!

Beth spent all last night uploading the majority of our Guatemala pictures to our Picasa page. She's still working on captions, but for now, you can at least see more of what we've been seeing. Hope you enjoy them!

Holiday Feast/Gearing Up for Break

Yesterday afternoon a lot of staff members got together at a teacher's apartment for a big holiday feast. Since most everyone was off traveling on Thanksgiving, no big dinner was ever thrown. So, this one made up for that and I guess counted towards Christmas and any other religious holidays members might be celebrating (Festivus, perhaps?).

We brought a big bowl of stuffing as well as eight or so baked cloves of garlic and some crackers. We thoroughly stuffed ourselves on appetizers, main dishes, and dessert. It was fun hanging out with everyone and watching the football games on TV. Due to our over-eating, we tapped out at 3 to head home and ease our distended stomachs with some stretching out on the couches.

We're down to the last week before break. My workload has tapered off since I will be unable to do any more work after Friday. Now I'm just trying to finish up projects that are still in progress. Beth and I are eager for the weekend as we'll be flying out early Saturday morning to Honduras for a week of scuba diving/certification on the island of Roatan. We'll return to Guatemala City on Saturday, the 15th, and have all of Sunday to pack up for our flight back to the States on Monday morning.

We can't wait to see all of you, and we'll be home soon!
