My diary

This was a bad start, a very bad start...so I get there and not what I expected at all, mind you that this is not my field, so I knew little about archeology, and I think it's safe to say that I was ill prepared, and that just put a damper on the entire tour for me, *sigh. First it was way too early to be getting up, second when we got there I was highly confused, highly, and very, very uncomfortable. I did t know what to expect, and this was not it...at all. Thirdly, I did not have the proper clothing for this type of thing and this type of culture, I spent more time trying not to be exposed that actually working.

So I was assigned to a Ricardo, which was cool because I got to practice my español, but I was at a loss and I honestly didn't, and still don't know what I'm doing here.

To make matters worse I sprained my ankle....woooo..fun times. I just wanted to get out of there.

So we came back to the hotel, I went for a swim in the pool, when I got out it didn't hurt as much, that was because I wasn't real on it in the water, had lunch, and now they're washing pottery?? I on the other hand am icing my foot....happy times....can't wait for tomorrow.
