Mud. And a walk to school


It's been raining off and on in these days, which I love. The downside of all the lovely rain though, is the mud. To get to school, we go through the cane fields where the road is mostly dirt and rock. Of course, when the rain comes, we get mud and puddles and...a mess. The other day on the way to school, Junior-a teacher and the driver, was trying to miss a mud/water hole and went too far to the right, throwing us into the ditch where we got stuck. Alberto was still doing the food buy about 30 mins away, so we decided to walk. It was quite a distance, but we made it after crossing little rivers along the way and mud everywhere. The van did eventually get pulled out and all was well.
