No or very little internet and iguanas

Hi everyone,
I hope you are well. I have been without internet for a while now. I have not been able to update my blog very often. Wow, it has been a great month and a long one too. I have moved into a new house with my new roommate named Anna. She was in language school for 3 months prior to coming to live with me. She arrived on Tuesday. She is so awesome. She will be teaching upper elementary at AVA. The missionaries here have helped me in so many ways with the move. They moved my personal belongings, furniture, etc. Also, they repaired my water box, my electricity, toilet, shower head, sprayed for fire ants, the list goes on. Thank the Lord for them. My house's electricity works on phases and it runs the water too.

Also, I had a very unique experience at school last week. One of my students asked to go to the bathroom and then he came back a few minutes later and said there is a lizard in the bathroom. He said it was in the trash can. I said, "Have you washed your hands?" "No." I said, "Go back into the bathroom and wash your hands, the lizard won't bother you." He said, "okay." A few seconds later, I heard a lot of noise outside. I went to see what was going on. There wasn't a lizard in the boys' bathroom but a 2 or 3 feet iquana. I told him to go around him but the Brazilian children said no because their tails whip. But eventually he walked toward and it was scared away. Only in the tropics, would I experience an iguana at my school. I am just waiting for the snake now.

I will post pictures of an iquana and my house soon.

Blessings,
Nova

  1. I know your internet is in and out, but I just found a game that is similar to Jones! If you can, check it out! It's fun, but not as good as Jones! :-) Have a wonderful day!
