Another Monday here in Montevideo and it rained once again. It was an odd weekend...we came back from Buenos Aires on Tuesday night and had school the next morning, so the weekend was for recovery. Despite the resting we wanted to do, there is so much homework to keep up with! I did learn how to play Idiot (a card game) and taught 3 new people how to play Rook (another card game). On Sunday, we changed times. It is spring, so we jumped ahead an hour. Until the U.S. goes back an hour, we will be three hours ahead. Last night after church, we continued our tradition of going out for ice cream at La Cigale. We were greeted by the sound of Elton John songs! Autumn and I had fun singing along while eating our amazing ice cream. I'm pretty sure we got a few looks from the ladies who work there :) O well, we were just being ourselves.
As for this morning, our (Kate, Linley and I) alarm clocks did not go off and so the boys decided to jump on the ceiling above our room because we were late for chapel. We all thought someone was falling down the stairs or the building was collapsing but it sure did wake us up! Tonight we were supposed to have another Tango lesson but we're cancelling so we can go see one of the Presidential candidates of Uruguay. Maybe we'll get to shake his hand! That's all I've got for today. I miss everyone back in Texas. Two months to go....
