Rain, Rain, please nevereverever go away.

Today was the official start of hurricane season here in Cancun. It has greeted us with about 7 or 8 hours straight of heavy rain, a lake in our front yard, and buckets littering the house to collect the water dripping through the ceiling.

It also provided about a 15 degree drop in temperature, which is BEAUTIFUL.

Welcomed our first group of the summer in to the house today. A group of nine women from the Detroit area. We spent the day selling clothes as an A) service to community with super cheap clothes, and B) a fundraiser for one of the ministries that Back2Back works with here. The day was filled with a lot of, "Cuanto cuesta?" and "Diez pesos" and "Cuantas camisas tienes?" In the same day got to prove my grasp of language and my severe limitations with the language.

Dinner consisted of liquid rainbows, solid gold, and ground unicorn hooves. Well, technically it was chicken, peppers, and beans, but those things are just are wondrous and precious.

Apparently I'm singing in spanish tomorrow. Ought to be fun.
