Just another day...

Just another day here in Porto. Camp, Lunch, Beach, Drinks, Internet.
Camp was better today. Most of my kids remembered "Good Morning" and a lot of the animals. We worked on numbers and colors today and everything went really smoothly. We also played twister which was fun and challenging at the same time. I find myself frustrated a lot because I am no allowed to speak Italian to the students, but I also don't understand it yet. So I will have a student trying to tell me something, and I can't understand and all I can say is "say it in English" but they don't know how and I can't understand. Not beng able to communicate or meet the needs of my students is new and completely frustrating to me. But as a whole I feel like today went much better then yesterday.
Claire and I went to the beach after camp today and feel asleep for about 2 hours in the sand. We then went out for drinks at this bar that serves the best mojitos I have ever had. I watched them pick fresh mint to make them. We sat for hours and just drank and talked. It's hard to remember that we have known each other for 5 days and not 5 years. She is just the best!! We are both convinced that we were meant to come on this trip to find each other just to be each other's support. I am amazingly blessed to have this support at a time where I was seeking it while being in paradise at the same time.
We are in the middle of planning our trip this weekend to Venice and Verona. I can't wait. Caio!
