Day 2

We had a list of supplies needed and headed into Ensenada.  It is amazing how long it takes to shop when you have to translate everything and convert prices into dollars.  Two hours at Costco and two hours at Walmart.  There are very "American" places to shop, but surprisingly, they are more expensive than in the States.  Brands are also limited so we will have to make another trip to El Cajon to get vitamins, mouse traps, a television and most importantly, diet coke.

We made it back to the Ranch for dinner and another round of cleaning.  It was then that we discovered that the hot water heater was not working.  Cold showers!

There is a wonderful family here who came to drop off their daughter (she is a teacher here) and is cooking for us this week so we can just take care of getting settled.  Otherwise, I am sure that we would be at the taco stand each night.

Robin learned today that she will be teaching the third level.  The kids will range in age from nine to sixteen.  The one thing that they will have in common is that they will know more Mexican sign that she does. 

We haven't caught the mouse yet.  Kelli continues to sleep lightly.
