Went on our first grand adventure... we were with the Tlalpan 1 girls, Nelli Compos and her friend Chelli, also Nelli's father. We went to a school in Apaxco, north of Mexico city where the students were hosting an english culture day. It was exciting! The kids were dressed up as important American and British icons and musicians. Singing, dancing, along with deplays of different holidays and traditions in each country. It was exciting to find a fun sight of 'home' in such an unlikely place :).
We spent the rest of the day with Nelli and her family, eating and watching 'Coach Carter' with her dad- in English :). Soon after a final visit to Nelli's fathers home we made our 3 hour trek home from Apaxco.
Before arriving back at Sean and Jeni's home for the night we visited some missionary friends of the McClues and played board games. It was a long, but very fun day. I can't wait to explore more... especially now that we have an apartment! We will sign the documents tomorrow at 5pm to make it official! I can't wait!
Please keep this and my guy team mates in your prayers. We have had a little quicker success in retrieving a apartment. The one the boys wanted was rented right before they made an offer. So the search has begun once again.
Thank you for reading and supporting and praying for me and this work. I am so excited to be here and begin my plunge into Mexico culture! But now, it's late so I will be going... I'll update you soon!
