I shall be telling this with a sigh

Somewhere ages and ages hence:

Two roads diverged in a wood, and I-

I took the one less traveled by,

And that has made all the difference.

Mercado Principal

El mercado principal. Definitely not like your average mall. I'm not lieing when I say that the culture here in every way is rich because even their mercados have so much life to them.

It has been raining a lot in Merida and on Friday night it rained so hard Krista and I got charged extra for our taxi ride because one street literally resembled a scene from Day after Tomorrow. Yikes. So much rain. Today when we walked and got our late lunch of pizza it was raining yet again but this time it was nice and almost comfortable. We had an amazing meal of pizza and cheesecake and then on our walk back Krista took a photo of a incredibly interesting mariposa that was resting on the ground. The photo now serves as the only remaining physical proof of the butterfly because one second after we took its picture a crow swooped down and devoured it. :-(
Right now it's pretty late in terms of Venezuelan time... but I don't have class until 2pm tomorrow which is a nice relief. As much as I love to learn spanish I always feel apprehensive before jumping into my intensive schedule that totals up to 22 hours total of classroom time. Dios mio. Good night, Buenas noches & I shall continue on my Venezuelan journey for my remaning 2 weeks, :-(

Wherever did the time go...
