Later on June 29th

Well the Internet came back randomly right about the time my computer battery was dying. Oh well. Earlier today I met a girl who said she had wifi at her host’s house and was quite friendly, gave me her address and said come on over. I’m gonna talk with Mrs. Polchow and see how her Internet situation is.
Still having issues figuring out the money system here—always having to compare it to dollars and that takes time, particularly without a calculator.
Ashley and I walked around the mall while we waited for a break in the storm and then we went out to the buses to see if we could figure out how to get back to Sabanilla. We ran into some other students with their host father and he helped us get on the right bus. On the buses here they don’t stop at every stop unless there’s a lot of people at the stop or someone inside the bus pulls a string that goes all the way back through the bus. It makes a buzzer go off in the front. I had to pull it twice because I pulled it too early the first time. Ashley and I were looking for a landmark that we had only seen once, and me seeing it only at night lol But we got off and found the house easily. Got through the first gate easily. But the gate in front of the door was problematic. It took us about 5 minutes to get it open there’s no keyhole just a latch in the back, but even when we had the lack out it wouldn’t open…and then all of a sudden it opened…I personally think that the hinges are old and the door isn’t level anymore cause we had a hard time closing it back again as well.
Just made some of my tea and relaxing.

Evening:

We had another downpour and it was REALLY loud on the tin roof. For dinner we had black beans rice, and some potato dish. Afterwards we stayed and chatted a good while. Now it's time for bed!
