Who knew it could get cold in Honduras??

 We did, but we never anticipated this kind of weather. In school we were as many layers as physically possible, woolly socks under school shoes, cardigans, jumpers, scarves and even gloves and we’re still cold! Perdomo (our director) has had the wonderful idea of putting the coffee 'keeper warmer' in the office now though so at least we have that to warm us up and keep us going through the day! Although this is a slight contribution to my new found addiction to coffee….

(Darwin capturing exactly how cold it is)

At night we both have 3 blankets and sleep in Pyjamas and hoodies and again, woolly socks, trying to make sure that no skin is out to the elements.

It’s not that it’s freezing here, and in comparison to home it’s ‘warm’ it’s just that the temperature inside a house, is the same as it is outside so the only way to be warm is to go in the shower…and even that’s been dodgy the last couple of days…the sun has started to emerge again now though so hopefully ‘winter will be over with soon’

If the future La Union volunteers ever find this blog…please, please please take head of my warnings and remember to BRING WARM CLOTHING!
