The School

Biking each day to School

We had a nice breakfast at the hotel Today and Sakzil came and brought us bikes and rode with us to the school. Yes, on the very same roads we navigated last night - definitely epic bike riding!!  Just STAY on the left and freaking hold your breath when the buses come by! Sakzil is awesome - very funny and easy going. The school was very cool and the children and teachers were so warm and welcoming. They are so interested in us and really want to use their English - thank goodness because we couldn't figure out one word of their language - and the names.....oh, the names.....Sakzil will get us name tags which will help - but still, I don't think my pronunciation is going to cut the mustard!  
Our class..ready to learn "American" English
We are back at our hotel now, sitting on the veranda looking over the waterways - it is tropical and beautiful here, it reminds me of Tahiti.  The people are so warm and welcoming and we have two helpful people to assist us while we are here - Shine is the manager and we have his cell phone and direct line and Ravi who handles any other need we may have. They are watching out for us - it is amazing how cared for we are!
