Saturday
Sarah and I went to town in the morning, went to Guancascos, did some shopping, and then went for lunch at a tipico restaurant where we got bolibaleadas (tortillas with bean, cheese, mantequilla and eggs). They were so filling and so not good for you, but taste amazing! Haha. Afterwards, she went to hang out with Gustavo so I met up with the girls again. I got to talk to some friends back home who I haven’t spoken to in a while, so that was great to be able to catch up with them. We headed back up soon after that and had a relaxing evening.
Sunday
I love the weekends for the fact you can sleep until you don’t want to anymore and it doesn’t matter what time you get up. I spent some good time with God, taking a verse and kinda making my own Amplified version of it since I don’t have any other resources for Bible study. It was sufficient and good for my soul. Soon after our neighbor, Mrs.Laurelais came over to help us make a Filipino meal. It was a little early (we had just finished a late breakfast), but the prep time took a while so by the time it was ready, we were ready to eat it. The dish was very similar to Chop Suey and had lots of veggies along with noodles, shrimp and chicken. We spent Sunday afternoon relaxing then most of us decided to go to the hot springs. It seems like a prerequisite for it to be raining when we go to the hot springs, because it definitely didn’t stop raining the whole time. We arrived and enjoyed the hottest pool, which is like a nice hot tub. It’s still kinda weird going there because people still stare and especially guys try to hit on us and stuff; it gets really annoying, like haven’t you seen a gringa before? But we still had a good time; we ate some grilled corn with lime and salt (yum) for a snack there and then began the process of heading home. We got home too late to go to church, but we all had things we had to do to get ready for Monday, too.
