* Here there is always 12 hours of sunlight everyday, all year long due to their position on the equator. You can expect the sun from 6-6.
*Traffic here is completely crazy! All rules and regulations are solely suggestions. Pedestrians do NOT have the right away. Passing on a two-way highway with oncoming traffic is completely possible. Red=stop Green=go Yellow=accelerate
*Do not flush the toilet paper. This may cause extreme flooding.
*Many things are much cheaper here:
-bottle of water $0.25
-24 roses $2.50
-one bus ride $0.25
-gallon of gas $1.45
-gallon of diseal $1.03
Of course all these prices are relative to their income
*Fruit is in season year round and they eat it for every meal! It is so delicious and there is a ton of variety. We have fresh squeezed juice everyday for breakfast. Mmm!
That is all I have for now. It is going to be a busy week. I have lots of homework for tomorrow, a Spanish test (oral and written) Wednesday, and an Ecosystems midterm on Thursday. Friday we leave very early in the morning for the Amazon. We return Monday and have a research paper due Wednesday. So. I will probably not post again until Thursday or maybe even Tuesday. All is well...wish me luck!
