Fun in Zihuatanejo

F is loving his lessons. Jadira, his teacher, and Heidi, another teacher, have been coming to apartment. Apparently the students in town now are all at different levels and it is easier to work with them individually. It is good for F since he is getting such individual attention. I hear them in the other room laughing and talking and am reminded how much F enjoys this and why I am glad we come.

Yesterday we went to a Technical College in Petetlan, about 30 minutes from Zihua. The Eco Tourism students had made dioramas explaining a vision they had for an Eco project relating to animals, birds and beaches of the area. Jadira had her students talk to the college students about their projects in Spanish.  The kids were very responsive and seemed to appreciate having an opportunity to talk about their projects.

The college had made many improvements since last year and is really going to be nice.  They also teach food preparation and auto repair.

We ate lunch in Petetlan afterwards.

 Last night we took Cloud for a walk and found this great park with kids, youth and adults playing soccer, basketball, boxing, volleyball and swimming.  Filled with people. Yadira said they had very few parks and the people started protesting and the government had built several.  This was really nice and people were taking advantage of it,
