First day of work

We started off the morning with some home cookin' by Tom. He went to the market at 7am to buy ingredients for a yummy breakfast. As Tom was trying to explain to the butcher that he wanted a pound of bacon (not knowing the spanish word for bacon) he almost ended up with a pound of ham instead. He stopped the slicing just in time and the store manager helped him to find the bacon instead. Our co-worker Justin (the new gym teacher) joined us this morning for bacon, eggs, and homemade hashbrowns. Good work Tom!

This afternoon we met with our administrators here at the school. We've now got loads of information about when to give out uniform violations (if shoes are not mostly white, or if socks are too short) and key rings with about 15 keys each! Our school day begins at 6:45am but we're done with students at 1:45. We could be at the beach by 2:30 if we wanted to! Luckily our commute is only about 30 seconds while we're living in the guesthouse.

Tonight, we went back to the market to buy some stuff so I could make spaghetti. I think it was pretty tasty!
