No entiendo?!

It’s a bilingual school and you are not allowed to speak Spanish with your students. So that means you don’t need to know Spanish right? Heavens no! All the staff devotions, memos, instructions, etc. are given in Spanish so if you don’t know some you better start learning. About half of the staff only speaks Spanish. Plus, most Hondurans you’ll interact with everyday know only one language and of course it is Spanish. The good thing is the more you get to know the staff the more you learn and they are a friendly bunch. Plus, exploring Comayagua city is a great way to practice. Taxis here are only 20 lempiras ($1 US) and it gets you anywhere in the city. Yesterday, we hopped on a taxi and went to Pizza Hut. I know Pizza Hut…we’re in a Spanish country and we went to the all American Pizza Hut. However, ever since we got here everyone has been raving about their salad bar. I know you must be thinking it too…how good can salad be? Well, let me tell you, it can be absolutamente deliciosa! There salad bar is so big with a large variety of choices…fruit salad, vegetables, pasta salad, potato salad, coleslaw…you name it, its there. You can really just have that as your meal. Oh and the pizza ain’t too bad either.
