Im Home!!!!

Well, last night I got in at the airport around 9:30 pm. I got home around 11:30 pm. When I got home I noticed my mom had cleaned and repainted my room a dark blue, my favorite color. I went to school today and got some homework to do that I missed. Im gonna have to go to some tutoring sessions to get cought back up, but it won't be to hard because I only missed 5 school days. Even though I was gone more than 5 I only missed 5 because we had some days off at school here in the states.
I miss El Salvador but I am still glad to be home and with my friends here. I also miss not having to get up as early as I do here in North Carolina.
When I gave my family their gifts that I bought them in El Salvador they were thrilled.
Well I guess I am done with this blog. I hope all my viewers have enjoyed checking out my blog and seeing what I did in El Salvador. Adios!

My Ninth Day in El Salvador

Today was much the same as yesterday. Today though was a little bit different. It was different not really in a school related thing but with the students and teachers. At the end of the day I said to some of them that I knew, goodbye. It wasn't anything special, just a goodbye exchange and telling the teachers thanks for having me in your class and telling my friend Bryce thanks for helping me out. That was really the only thing different. The food was still great, we had cheese hamburgers and fries and some other good stuff.
Today after school I got home to the house we are staying at and did some homework for my school in North Carolina, or in spanish Carolina de Norte. After I did my homework my friend Bryce called and we went and played some ping pong for the last time. I owned him. Now I am going to eat dinner and enjoy my last night in El Salvador.

My Eighth Day in El Salvador

(This is a sort of side shop on the city streets of El Salvador. It sort of looks like New York with all the side shops.)
Well today I went back to Escuela Americana. I started a new class there, it was computers. The computer class was very much like our own at Jefferson Middle. Although the computers were a little bit older that ours. In spanish class today I learned some new words. They were mostly just food word, but I also learned a few others that are used in conversations.
The food today was better than ever. There was something that was cheese with bread over it, and they also had pupusas today. I tried one and boy oh boy are they delicious. So I went back and got another one. Tonight I am going to a Chinese restaurant for dinner. The two ladies that took us around on Saturday are taking us to the Chinese restaurant.
Couple of Hours Later
The food at the Chinese restaurant, called Hunan, was very good. It was not quite like the Chinese food that we have in the States but it is good all the same. I got the general tso's (zoes) chicken and spring rolls. It was all great but as I said before, not quite like the Chinese food in the States.
Tomorrow I go back to EA and it will be my last full day there, and then on Wednesday I say adios to El Salvador.

This is a El Salvadoran band playing in the center of a neighborhood park.
This is a street in a neighborhood that we went through. It is where I got my souvenirs for me and my family. You can see dogs that are super skinny because they are not feed enough, and you can see people that are extremely poor.

This is a church getting ready for a wedding.

This is an archeological dig site at a museum that I went to.
This is the fruit that chocolate is made from. M&Ms are made from this fruit as well. The fruit is called Cacao.

These are both pictures of me tye dyeing a cloth. The smell was horrible but it was pretty fun.
