So Monday at Luz Del Mundo was my first without any other volunteers, and it was really difficult trying to get control of the kids, especially the boys when we went to play football, and with my limited Spanish, but as usual enjoyable. I also told Limbert about the trial at Tahuichi the next day which pleased him, and then I made arrangements for meeting him, before we went to the market and I bought him some cheap trainers to play in as he didn't have any.

So that evening we decided that sitting around not watching a film wasn't an option, and also decided that even if the nightlife in Santa Cruz, Bolivia on a Wednesday night isn't good, if we get enough people together we can make it good. We did just thatand had a long search for a good club, and eventually found one witha live band who played salsa as well as rock classics like Bon Jovi's Living on a prayer - was a very fun night.

I tried to explain what I was doing here in Santa Cruz in my basic Spanish and how I wanted to do more football coaching before he told me...

Right, I think this is the longest I've left this so I've come to the cheapest internet cafe I can find and am going to settle down here for a while. Last time I wrote, we did exactly what I'd said and went to the swimming pool for a while and then watched the champions league final with A LOT of Israeli's, all supporting Chelsea because of their Israeli manager.
