We woke up. We ate. We left. Left for the market.
The market was basically a huge building of city vendors all selling the same stuff for a higher price than the one before. It was hilarious to see the translators bargaining to get us lower prices. Because let's face it they rip off us gringos and we have no idea. It is actually kind of comical. After hours of shopping we left to have lunch. We went to the one the only, drum role please,... PAPUSA EXPRESS!
Papusas are basically tortilla dough mixed with various extras like cheese. Pressed out into tortillas and cooked. Soooo delicious.
We went to Nueve Esperonza (orphanage that is supposed to be only used to keep children in for a couple of days while their papers are being processed but the kids end up staying there for months or even years) during the afternoon. It was absolutely insane. The 2 year olds were literally destroying a classroom and I couldn't even go in. The older ones were taking our things and running around with them. The time there was none the less exhausting.
Finally to take care of our food needs an went to the grocery store to buy some Honduran food products.
After getting home to the hotel we regrouped then went to our farewell dinner. It was a beautiful restaurant with absolutely amazing food. We were finishing up our dinner when the translators started giving there little thank you speeches. The spiritual maturity I just find quite astounding for being only 15 years old. It just goods to show how God really does bring certain people for a more certain reason and I can't wait to see how that holds out. The time came for us to say goodbye to our new friends and get one our way. Hug after hug and picture after picture we were ready. See people get so worked up over leaving knew people and leaving the country. But really you aren't saying goodbye, you are saying hello.
