Gone this weekend

Hi everyone! I just wanted you to know that you will not be seeing any new blog posts until Monday night at the very earliest. I will be gone from Thursday morning through Monday night with all the program participants and our director to Chiapas, another state in Mexico. We will be seeing Palenque, which is a ruin, and also spending a couple days in San Cristobal, Chiapas which is up the mountains. We were told to bring a jacket!! haha!!! I'm sooo excited for some cooler weather...well like, 60-70. So I shouldn't be bragging but I can't wait to be in cooler temperatures. We will also be celebrating Day of the Dead which is Nov. 1 and 2 in San Cristobal so that will be an interesting experience. We have our Merida seminar and we are making our own altar...kind of like what many families make to remember their family members that have gone before them. I don't quite understand everything about Day of the Dead, but we are learning about it tonight, so I will be able to tell you more after tonight and especially this weekend. I look forward to sharing stories and pictures early next weekend! Everyone enjoy fall for me! I miss it like crazy! Everything is still as green as can be here....its kind of getting boring! I didn't think I would have ever said that, but no changes and feeling like I have been in the season of summer for 6 months is getting old. Bring on the change!!

Have a great weekend! =)
