Sunday
Today we got to sleep in and then Ana had invited us to have a barbecue at her house for the day. Today was also Election Day in Honduras, so everyone was going to vote so Vida Abundante didn’t really want us out and about on Election Day. We spent most of the day at Ana’s and had really good food, all normal barbecue stuff and dessert. They made so much food for us; it was so sweet and kind of them to open their house up for us. We relaxed, watched TV, watched some of the election, met some of her family and saw her house, played the couch game and got manicures and pedicures. It was a relaxing way to end the weekend. All of us girls reviewed our pictures before bed and had a fun time laughing at all the fun things we did.
Monday
Headed back to Gracias this morning early again on buses to La Esperanza and then to Gracias; Laura Beth and I said bye to Vicente and the girls and Jake before we left. It was a great time hanging out with them all weekend and getting to do all the fun things we did. I was so thankful nothing really happened after the elections as far as violence, which is what we had been concerned about. It turned out great though and was a great break to get me through until Christmas when I get to see my family and be home. LB and I were really excited to see girls and tell them about our weekend. When we got back to Gracias, we headed up with Mauricio in the mototaxi and met the girls walking down to town. We all gave and received huge hugs. Later that night we shared our stories about how Teguz was and how the weekend was in Gracias. The girls’ weekend was good, too. It was more relaxing/slower paced than ours, but they made lots of great food, spent time with the neighbors, went into Gracias and relaxed. I liked being in Teguz for the weekend, but it was nice to back in calm, quiet Gracias, too.
