Tomorrow is a special day here called "Student's Day". There is no school tomorrow, and all the parks are free. They usually cost about 3 bolivianos for adults and kids under 5 or so are free anyway. So today, the kids had to dress in costumes for school. Isabela wanted to dress in her cholita outfit. And Joaquin was a soccer player. Very bolivian. The other kids were dressed like buzz lightyear, witches, bunnies, superman, and pirates. The buzz lightyear was my favorite. And their teachers are having a special snack today.
For those of you who haven't heard, we finally got the internet at home hooked up! Of course, so much time without it, I'm now going to have to find a way to pull myself away from it and get some housework done. One interesting thing, the wires here are all above ground...so they ran a cable from the telephone pole, over the roof, through a window and to the wall. But the computer is wireless, so I can even sit outside and do it!
