felt cathedrals

Yesterday I was commissioned by Sor Sor Isa and Gaby go. Besides, she was my camera, I must actually take pictures of the cathedrals in Tuxtla and San Cristobal. Photos are needed for a poster that the arrival of Don Bosco is to announce urn in Tuxtla. The Salesisaner have namely 150-year anniversary and so makes the ballot box from the Don Bosco ne tour of the world. In August she will be notified in Tuxtla and that must, of course! In 2015, they celebrate it the same one more MEGA EVENT: Don Bosco was then namely Born 200 years ago

Anyway. I felt it was extremely welcome a change not to work at the orphanage, but to make me otherwise shared nütlzlich. Also, I have discovered photography and so yesterday I had a really great day. Here are some results:


Go to me was the program PTGui to assemble each individual part photos. This was necessary because I unfortunately do not have a lens that can hold an entire building with no problems ...

They Do Not Appear Effeminate

Why Cancun as so horrible?


be seen after 3 days relaxing on Isla Mujeres, from which one the skyline of Cancun (it consists of quite a few big hotels side by side) already We also wanted to know for one night this place is so especially for Youtube videos swigging, half-naked Americans during Spring Break known.

I should first say that the following are absolutely subjekitv and I want to offend anyone!

In Cancun meet, especially Americans who are here a few days on the beach . Spend Therefore, I was also generally addressed only in English, which I in fact generally, in spite of the very fundamental level, does not interfere, but provides but for the fact that I felt uncomfortable. For all who did not know: 40 years ago Cancun was a small fishing village. Then the Mexican government came up with the idea aufzuzihen a holiday paradise in the style of Acapulco in the Caribbean and filled in all the required data into the computer. This assessed the coordinates of Cancun as appropriate and so with initial subsidies were first hotels built. Cancun grew and grew and is now a metropolis that was built from the ground. Consequently, the city also has no old buildings and just generally NOTHING, absolutely NOTHING beautiful, be it building, park or whatever. The Zone Hotelera, where the large majority of tourists, lies outside the Centros on by a separate bay, beach. There are in this case international hotel chains.

I really want no criticism of the government to exercise the plan. I find it extremely useful even the whole Kulturunsensiblen mass tourism from America not to let into the country. Let them prefer to stay drinking with each other and let the Mexicans in peace. I felt the whole atmosphere just as bad, because I am in this country simply do not feel as a tourist. I live here, speak the language and does not want me for just any Touri would be kept, where you can pull the dollar out of the pockets. In addition I am absolutely inclusive not a fan of all-or mass tourism, so my attitude was before the arrival of very critical. By bus fares (twice as much as with me in Tuxtla) over supermarket prices, to the club entrance (usually 45 -60 U.S. dollars) Cancun also considerably more expensive than the rest of Mexico.

Serves I was when we sat in the bus and start a group of drunken young American women. It turned out that 2 of the 4-5 girls, their mothers, who felt it was obviously still very young. There was talk then very loud and excited about it, with how many types we have this evening rumgemacht so à la

"How many did you hook up with tonight?"
"Just three and you, mom?"
"Oh, I do not even remember, honey"
(both laughing) announced

A highlight it but then: In a (concrete) park sitting and Mexican (no, not a U.S. American Food chain) food eating our 2 young apprentices offered free massages. So we came to enjoy a relaxing 50-minute massage from head to toe, in a rather chic yet to institute. Contribution was only a range of feedback, although there were no objectionable stuff:)

So, better not ride to Cancun. The Yucatan Peninsula has to offer many beautiful spots such as Playa del Carmen, which, although it is very touristy, but much much nicer (maybe just European?) Was designed.

Starlogic Usb 5.1 Theater

What goes?

After some very sobering commentary on the actuality of my blog now, the latest news:

I am the last 2 weeks with Felix (you know already: operates in Coita, 1 std. Tuxtla ago as a volunteer even for Siijuve) and the last week with Nele, Ner girlfriend of Felix the currently Au Pair in San Francisco, makes traveling around the Yucatan. Route was as follows: Merida, Tulum, Isla Mujeres, Cancun (A NIGHTMARE! TERRIBLE TOWN THAT I HAVE BEEN KNOW! More on that later), Coba, Tulum and Playa del Carmen. We have really seen a lot and the vacation was just great!

After the Easter holidays there are 2 important new features here at the Albergue: 1 Emilio's gone. Emilio was a particularly stressful child, so his absence (although one of only 50 boys) here would be of considerable importance. It was me but somehow, despite ADHD and constant resistance and stubbornness, and all this "problem child posturing" grown really fond of. Sor Luz me, insured that he would be better now because he lives in a family who take care of individual course can. But I wonder how long the family will have it / can, as Emilio has already acted in a number of host families nearby. The guys who have no families are in fact located more in the holidays with host families. Unfortunately, there are not enough but in rare cases. As I sit here now in the project, photos of Emilio to be filed later.

second The children now have 2x weekly Tae-kwon-do classes. I find very very good! Yesterday was the first time, and training of teachers (with, according to his own statement, longtime Militaererfahrung which one it also decreases very) much more emphasis on disciplines. Also be called the children are physically and hopefully in quietly Estudio what I really would come to good, I now usually only for the children in the group "Don Bosco" am responsible (ie aged 10-14 Sun about 10).

also arrived yesterday, a new child. Since my arrival last summer, the boy is the second, after the four year-Ivan Jesus, which was recorded several months ago. In exchange, but 6 guys already have left the Albergue. This usually happens because they do not even more and it would be counter-productive, then this still keep. Particular it was in the autumn of Jose and Alexis, living with their mothers, about 2 months Praxtedes had made to the Elias lot. Finally, the two children of the woman who worked in the laundry is because one of the two - Jhon Franklin - was bullied and now even Emilio. I will not be involved as volunteers in such decisions, I do believe, though not the majority of the nuns.

am Otherwise I remained faithful and always pray not still go but now almost daily the Bulli, with me and pick up some of the Sor Luz children from 2 schools. Driving in Mexico was at first totally getting used to. In particular, the constant eighth on the track while the "easy" road disorderly was found to keep an eye out to be a Herasuforderung. You have to say that in Mexico almost as many "Topes" as tortillas are. Topes are wider Hills that were created artificially in the streets to force the driver to slow down. There Topes in various shapes and heights and has to be out, with how many km / h you can about each drive over there, it really takes a while. Some sets namely, even if only 5 km / h even on the exhaust, causing anxious faces of Sor Luz and me, while enthusiastic "Chidoooo" leads cries of the children (in dt as "cool") .

Until Later

Baby Shower Invitation Money Poem

CRUZE


For Easter I made with my children cross. Which were then folded in the middle of a A5 glued sheet so that it led to a card. Then, with a (logical: religious) text provided to and from Italy and Mexico to the "bene chores," the donors, sent a thank you.

(were called to the children the crosses by the way still "estrellas", ie stars, because they combine this with me and group work and crafts and to get used somehow not wanted) for this Bastelakt had to / could I plan everything yourself, which I really has fallen. I see clearly that confidence in me and the legitimate requirements Vernatwortung more and more.

required for a cross min some children (especially Edgar, who was even faster I) 10., But some almost an hour. Brian, for example, a boy of enormous difficulties to concentrate for longer, but usually good-humored some English "songs" (which means he, without any knowledge of English, especially Michael Jackson), but mostly English songs hinträllert aloud needed due to some errors when connecting the lines, simple eternal. I think it was for him but also for all the other kids a good Konzentrationsübrung. The children also learn to work exactly as I give myself very picky and each needle to be placed exactly, otherwise the cross is not accepted.

I hope you can see this: The small holes in the boards are a Nylon thread connected. We use needles. In the end I still firmly lashed everything and voila, finished a cross.

The children will be sold in a job as a reward that they can make only when they have finished their homework. So then does the motivation:)


preparation is everything.


It looks so at mid-off.

rear view that is so glued to happiness.
