Dean has passed, and we are all safe here at the school. It brought a lot of heavy rain Monday, and the city flooded in some places. We had an interesting taxi ride during one of the first squalls that came through, but it was good because we got home just before our street flooded. It stayed like that for a few hours, and then the water went back down.

The first day of school (Monday) went pretty well. It was only a half day, which was good because we had many questions about policies, etc before the day was over. Yesterday, we did not have school because of the weather (which actually wasn't bad) so we spent the day regrouping and planning. Today classes went well- it was our first full day of class! Things are up and down, we are usually very happy to be here, but sometimes we just wish we were home.

Rufus and Tiny are doing well! They just had their third, and last, trip to the vet . Now the vet can send all of the paperwork to the capital, Tegucigalpa, so our cats will be officially Honduran. The paperwork was much more expensive than we were told when leaving the US, so we will be making the cats clean the house and do dishes to earn their keep.

Keep the people of Mexico in your prayers, the rain was pretty bad here and we were nowhere close to the eye with much much more rain and high winds.

Most of this I wrote yesterday, but the power went out after this was typed but before I got it posted. Bummer! But praise God for auto recover! The power seems to go out a lot here. It went out today as well in the middle of class, but the church has generators which they use in cases like that.
