All,

There is nothing safe about driving in Puerto Rico.  I am 100% certain that they keep the roads in bad condition just so that people have to drive slower.  You know things are interesting when the general thought is that instead of pulling over for an ambulance you should keep pace with it.  So rule #4 is Seatbelts.

Fortunately we have almost no permission to use the car.  This is a walking mission.  And this week we had an assignment to "hable con todos."  This means contacting.  Contacting can actually be really fun, if a little scary, and it's a great opportunity to talk to someone besides your companion.  We had a contact yesterday who told us basically her whole life story and cried a lot.  Some people really take the "representative of Jesus Christ" thing really seriously (me included).

All is well on the island!  Lots of love from me to you.
