Morning in Copan

Buenas Dias Todos! I have picked up a few phrases in Spanish and am trying to use them as often as possible. I've definitely nailed, Hola, Si and Adios. It's 7 a.m. in Copan, I'm so used to this routine, that I can' sleep in. Traveling to Copan from San Jose was uneventful, we were dropped off at a souvenir shop and said our final goodbyes to the health committee members after a tearful goodbye to the ladies and a few kids from San Jose as well as the interpretors. I think we all bought something. Then MC Tours picked us up in an AIR CONDITIONED van! Wow, did that feel good. We have done a complete 180 and are feeling a little guilty and spoiled. I keeping thinking of all the things we did the last week and how much fun we had - the truly special times. The hotel is beautiful and the weather is cool and a little rainy. Dinner last night was delicious and all but Kim went dancing at the discoteque - it was a lot of fun - everyone got on the dance floor - including Erik - who we love to call Enrique. Looking forward to seeing the Mayan Ruins this morning and learning more about the amazing history of the people here. Love to all and I can't believe I am saying this, but see you tomorrow! - Alisa
