Cooking in spanish




Buenas everyone!

I have just finished my third day of Spanish language school. Seven hours of Spanish a day. The first day was very hard but slowly I'm learning and having a lot of fun. I just helped cook a Costa Rican style snack; the cook did not speak English. The picture above is of the cook.

I have seen lots of birds the most common seem to have lots of yellow on them. I have also seen tons of flowers. I have not seen any monkeys or lizards yet maybe when I go into the countryside this weekend.

    Hey Mr. K-L,
    Greeting from Cedar Rapids, IA! Allan sent along your blogpost so thought I would check it out. Sounds like a great adventure for the whole family. Tell Beth hi for me.



    P.S. It was weird to hear Mr. Kellar-Long for my first time!
