On Again, Off Again, On Again...

Yup, our curfew is back on again. Around noon or so, we heard the announcement that our curfew was back on, effective 6pm tonight through 6am tomorrow. Oh well, I guess after a week of this, I'm getting somewhat used to it. Somewhat. Last night, our department was one of the few that WASN'T under a curfew. All the departments that have land borders with other countries were put under a curfew, as were areas with large seaports. During all of this, though, the Bay Islands (Roatan, Bahia, Trujillo, etc.) have been exempt from the curfew.

Right now, I'm sitting in Sandi's house. Currie and Samuel are up in San Pedro Sula, staying with the ladies that have been here for a week. Once Currie heard that the curfew was back on, he didn't want to leave them alone overnight to get to the airport tomorrow. So, they're all in a nice, safe, secure hotel suite 5 minutes from the airport.

Tonight, attendance at the Center was very low. No doubt it was because of the curfew and people not wanting to be out after 6pm. We opened, but only for a few hours. Right before closing, we got pretty silly... Rolyn starting "singing" karaoke, and several of us played air instruments. I'm actually pretty good as an air guitarist, and I think I totally rock as an air drummer!! There was some dancing, singing and just general silliness. It was a nice way to end the evening.

OK, I promise that eventually I'll tell you about the gecko poop, but, honestly, it seems a bit anticlimactic now.
