Peter and Ana went to school today. They attend the Moravian Christian High School in Bluefields, going with our friend Abayomi. They walk out to the main paved road to be picked up in a taxi at 6:30am. They attend an all Spanish speaking school from 7:00am - 12:00 noon. Ana sits in a 9th grade class with Abayomi. Peter went into a 7th grade class. High School is from 7th - 11th grade. Peter was very excited when he came home yesterday. He said he made 3 friends; 1 boy and 2 girls - but he didn't know their name and wasn't sure how to ask them. His notebook was written with Spanish words that he copied from the blackboard. Ana had a math class - and she understood everything. They were doing the same math that she is doing at SOCS. Good job Mr. Ezell!!
Teachers change from room to room while most students stay in the same room all day.
At dinner, Ana said that there were girls at school who liked Peter. (He must have been the talk at school) Peter said that a girl told him, "I like you." but he didn't know what it meant.
My blond hair boy getting the girls' attention!!!!!!!
We walked to a restaurant for dinner. It started to rain - so we ducked into a store to get shelter. Another girl came in with us. After I said 'Hi' to her, she said that she had seen Ana and Peter at school.
A red head and a blondie - get noticed in a school full of Nicaraguan children.
