A fresh start...
Today I just completed my final for parasitology, the last of my 1 credit courses to start this term. Tomorrow I start in with new courses, so tonight I have nothing to study! I was up studying a lot last night, so today I've been pretty exhausted, thus I haven't really taken advantage of my temporary freedom from school work. This weekend I did take a break on Saturday to go hiking with the girls. We actually took part in a hash run. You can read about it at the link, but essentially it was a hike through the jungle on a trail marked out with symbols drawn on the ground with shredded paper. Sometimes there are false trails marked, so we had to do a little navigating which made it more interesting than a regular hike. They have them every two weeks, so we'll probably be doing a few of them this term. It felt good to get a little exercise for a change. I've included a few pictures from that day, and as usual I didn't take the pictures because I never remember my camera (thanks Kristen.) I don't really have much more exciting to report. This coming Saturday we might return to the market in St. George's. I hope to see some more of the produce they have this time. The only other time I visited all I bought were spices to bring back for Christmas. I also really want to visit the fish market they have here some time. I've been down here surrounded by water for nearly 5 months and I can probably count the number of times I've had fish on one hand. That's it for now...I'll post again on Saturday hopefully with some pictures of the market. P.S. I couldn't resist the picture of the wiener dog since I actually found one on the island.
