I just found out that my internet works, it don't know if it is supposed to or not but I am not complaining. Mama Rosa is downstairs fixing me dinner right now. My original family is going to be out of town or something so they changed me which is fine, it all works out. I don't have a pool but I do have a private bath and I have a pool at school so it's all good. It is my first night here and oh my god it is amazing. I am going to love this place so much. It is really beautiful and I think that I am going to be very happy and content living here. Mama Rosa is great. It is just us in the house but all is well with that. Paul and Joe are coming over soon to get me and I am really excited about that. I think things will be much easier having Joe around the area in case my brain starts hurting and I just need a break. Paul and Joe were just here visiting. It was great to see them and to speak english for a little bit. This has already been so much easier than Ghana. It is kind of strange though because there are a lot more American things like Pizza Hut, Denny's, and a Best Western. There is quite a bit of English also and many people are able to speak English. I am glad that I will only be speaking Spanish in the home. Our conversations have been basic and limited but I am sure that they will get better with time. I am sooooooo happy. Did I mention that I am happy to be here? I am in a real home with a lot of character. My mom is an older lady with grandchildren my age. She reminds me of my Nanny in a lot of ways because of the way she loves the kitchen and was putting food in front of me as soon as I walked in and many of our conversations have revolved around food so far. The house is still decorated to the hills in Christmas stuff, it looks just like an American home, well, one of those homes where they really really overdo stuff and have a few nativity scenes, candles, santas, placemats, you name it. I wonder what this house will look like when they are gone. So yea, I got to the airport, did the basic stuff, and walked out into the beautiful sunshine of a day. It is so georgeous. Aghhhhhhhhh. Stick a fork in me, I am done. So tomorrow I start school, I have been told that it is even more beautiful up the hill at school. I can't wait!!!
I love you guys soooooo much!!!!
