It's Hot

Sundays are the hardest day- the teachers don't have their other jobs to go to, so we practice a lot longer in the morning, and yet still have afternoon practice. It's tough. Today was extra special because it also was the hottest day so far. There was a power cut for most of the afternoon which means no fans (already no air conditioning).
I took four cold showers & swam in the ocean to try to cool a bit. I can NOT imagine what it is like in March, when everyone says it gets really hot (what the heck? how is that even possible?!).

Even with this, today was another great day. Somehow, practices actually went well, though & tomorrow is our day off training, all will be well very soon. We had fun getting lost after the second practice & played Jenga (the Germans call it yenga) after dinner, which was really great- just to hang out & talk to each other not in practice mode.
Tomorrow: town going.
