There is a swim practice this night, also, but I usually choose the one on Sat AM b/c it's closer - I can walk - and it includes an aerobic/weight component as well as swimming.

Saturday

Walk out the door at 9:35 AM to arrive at gym/pool for 10-10:45 workout and 10:45-11:45 swim practice.  Return home by 12:15 ish...

Sunday

4:25-5:35 PM  Skype with my Koinonia Sunday School class !! 

You may notice that the teachers here, including me, work a much shorter week than US teachers...and they're on strike b/c they don't want to add 2 more hours of teaching time per week!  What's wrong with we workaholics in the US?  Anyway, "hay que disfrutar" - one has to enjoy !  So, today the 12th of October, is the Dia de la Hispanidad when the Spanish celebrate Columbus finding America...it's a holiday here so I decided to accomplish a blog post.  Now I want to get permission to take pictures of the school to show you what it looks like.  All for now!
