After these messages...

Remember this 80's commercial? Oh, the 80's. Bless the 80's heart.

But anyway....
I've been getting a few questions about Mexico, so I'm going to interrupt my "Reasons" monologue to answer some of them.

Why did I go to Mexico for 3 weeks?
I wanted to learn Spanish. My sis-in-law found out about this Spanish Immersion Course and she signed up. At the last minute (yes, the month before is considered last minute when you're going to Mexico for 3 weeks....the day you return from Girls Camp) I invited myself and signed up too.

What is this so-called Spanish Immersion Course, you ask?
Well, it's through a group called Project Amigo. This was the first year they offered the class. It was a pilot program for them so the price was good.

Where in Mexico was this offered?
Cofradia de Suchitlan. This is in the state of Colima. The nearest large town is also called Colima. (That was for you, Lisle.)

How did it go?
There were great things, and there were not-so-great things. If you email me, I'll elaborate.

Where can you learn more about this?
Um. The website is projectamigo.org. So you should check that out. But if you REALLY want to know more, you can email me. Or leave a comment with your questions and your email address so I can email you.
Can you throw in some more pics please?
Okay, no one really asked that. But here are some anyway. :)

Where I lived.



Mel & B giving out toothbrushes.


Waiting our turn to play volleyball. Photo taken with my unreliable camera, obviously.


Playing volleyball. Good times.

I love the 80's! Annie thanks for that trip down memory lane, now I will be humming the "after these messages" tune all day long.
