So it turns out in Bolivia, they have the equivalent of valentines day on the first day of spring…I think it was a setup by Laura to get chocolate.   They also had a parade that came down the street where our spanish school is.

Later in the day, we got to meet one of the people we’ll be working with (Melia) and hang out around town.  When we got back to our house, our family was having a small party to celebrate, with a ton of very tasty steak.  This was surprising to us, because usually they eat very little after dinner.

I’m also including a couple pictures from our family’s house, they have a very wrinkly dog named Poncho and a couple parrots.
