Mi ultima semana...

Well, I can't believe I'm saying this, but it's my last week in Bolivia. It has been a little nuts with political unrest...we were confined to our house in Santa Cruz today because there is a 6-province wide strike. On Sunday, we went to a soccer game and it was crazy...we played the team from La Paz, and there's a lot of racial and social tension between the 2 provinces. Let's just say we booked it home afterwards! I got some good pictures but my computer is taking forever to upload right now. We celebrated thanksgiving right this weekened prepared by mom and dad (charlotte and derek) and me. I have to say, it was quite scrumptious, turkey, stuffing, & all. I did miss Aunt Mary's cranberry sauce, though! Tomorrow is volunteer training day for my public health project and I'm a little nervous...there have been quite a few road blocks...figuratively & literally...but I'm trusting that God's gonna work it out. I can't believe it's almost December...we had temp.'s in the 90s this week...ugh. I'm actually looking forward to real winter!
