After a very crazy week of preparing classrooms, meetings, last minute changes, and helping new teachers- we were ready for a little party. Last year, if you remember, they took the entire staff to a fancy restaurant over-looking a dock. Well, this year they wouldn't tell us where we were going. They said you have 5 minutes to go home grab chairs, put bug spray on, and try to follow the caravan to this place. We were pretty suprised when we pulled into a plantain field. Plantains are like big bananas...so popular down here. Turned out to be a very fun place. We enjoyed taking pictures and walking around the field. We sampled guineaos ( little bananas), peppers, papaya, and Brent's favorite...sugar cane!! For dinner we had chicken and tostones. As you probably know...these teachers like to have a good time...and we did just that. Once everyone started to leave, the secretary invited us over to her house. Tonight the science teacher is having a karaoke party at his bar..everyone is prepared for Kelly and my singing!! Well next week we will have finished our first week of school. Hope it goes well!! Have a great week!
