so i started teaching today and half the kids there have either already studied with me or are inthe surf club or are inthe bike club. pretty funny. i am going to make the class really easy and fun and slow. i sure hope they like it !! i saw their book for English class and boy, someone is mean cause they mix up all the verbs and you can't make head or tail out of it. really a shame.
rob and Rich arrived yesterday and they are at the Copa Cabana, which is looking so beautiful, BTW. Really, they are the first ones to actually stay at the house since the remodel !! I can't wait to hear their opinion on it.
well, i decided to take grover;s idea and check out craig's list for bikes and wow !! i found 3 of them for 40 bucks. mountain bikes. i am thrilled. i am negotiating to see who can head over there and buy them for me and get them to ensenada. my first choice was derek and a close second is jose at peskayak. jose sent me an email and we are awaiting to see what comes of it all. the owner of the store is not in. they can't accept a credit card over the phone. #$%^&*( hard to do business when you are so far away !! I am frustrated. but also very happy that i found these bikes, all in one location.
joaquin stopped by this morning and his porch is done. the scuttlebutt is that some politician gave him some moola to finish and make it better. i think it is only fair since they all ALWAYS go there for meals. he needed to expand and he needed help to make it happen the way he envisioned it. and it came out really spectacular. INHO.
juanchys also stopped by and informed us that there are now 5 boats that can take people out. this is fantastic. good news. need the details on cost etc.
i wrote to rafa, my son, i need his resume. we are trying to get him a job ata multinational company that can use his talents. he speaks spanish and english and portuguese fluently. that is huge. he is smart and good with people. he will make a great manager. i have left money for him to fly to brazil. economy is booming there. that is where he should ship off to.
