Day 2

Day 2 of the field experience we were going out to see the schools and meet the staff. I found that with the time difference and just getting use to day light savings time that I was up at 4:30 Belizean time. Any how after waking up earlier and showering, which was cold again we set off as a group to find food. We ended up eating at a resturant called Georges, it was simply delicious. After eating we traveled down to Ambroguis Cayes Elementary school. It was such a cute school house. It was yellow and had a little playground and everything. The principle was super nice along with the rest of her staff. The class sizes were really small, there was even one that had just two students in it. The next school we visited was the high school. This was very interesting because there were more students then I had expected. The gym was very neat because it was outside and was an open building with a roof on it. The staff was very friendly as well as the students. The last school we went to for the day was the other elementary school. This one was very different from the first one. The playground had a fence around it with barb wire at the top. The building had an opening in the middle where you could look up at the second level and see all of the classrooms. At this school the students get an hour for lunch where as the other school gets half days on Fridays.

Once finishing our tour of the schools we headed back to Pedro's Inn to lay out by the pool. Out by the pool we say our friends, Travis from Texas and Glynn from Australia, we learned a lot about them and how they had been traveling around different countries for a while. I found it very interesting how so many different people end up in San Pedro. That night we just hung out at Pedro's by the pool chit chating with our new friends and swimming (just Brittany and me).
