Sunday July 3rd
Today, Cailtin, Debby and Elizabeth left to go back home (U.S). The guy on the motorcycle came at about 8am. His bike has this distinctive sound that can be heard a mile away. When he pulled up Debby freaked out because she thought he was only coming to pick up Cailtin since he had asked for her the previous day. She looked so horrified. Elizabeth and I went outside and he asked if they were ready and said he was going to UB to pick up the truck (Debby was relieved). After about 15 minutes he was back and they packed up and headed to the airport in Belize City. The House is so quiet now, but within a few hours Suzie will be arriving. Anyway, I’m exhausted and feel lazy and I turn 26 tomorrow.
Suzie arrived at around 2pm and we headed to the Bull Frog, the weather so far has been cloudy and there are intermittent showers. Of course on a Sunday, Belmopan the capital is deserted and 1 or 2 cars passes by. Suzie was so surprised at how small Belmopan is and I also expressed my dismay when I first got here because many African cities that are smaller in comparison have more activity on the weekends. After eating lunch and using the internet we walked back home to avoid getting showered in. I also emailed Dr.McKay, the dean of nursing, to ask for tomorrow off since its my birthday and it is also the Fourth of July. Hopefully I get a green light, if not, I can always celebrate when I get home.
