Here we go again...
Back to language school in Oaxaca City. We have moved here again until the end of March. We found an awesome place to stay - God worked out every detail. We are very blessed with abundant water, a backyard, our washing machine, and a park down the block from us.
Yesterday afternoon, we went in to the zocalo (main square). It is amazing how different it is here now than it was when we were here in August of 2006. It is quite the hotspot for tourists from all over the world. The zocalo was filled with them yesterday. Dan started his class on Thursday, and in his class, there are people from Canada, Switzerland, and Germany. It is so different than where we live in Tlaxiaco that I felt totally out of place. I have to admit, I was a little annoyed at all the tourists (don't ask me why, it just felt that were invading my "home") until I remembered how important tourism is for Oaxaca's economy, so then I praised God for the many visitors that are here right now. Back in August, 2006, we were one of the few foreigners left with the teacher strike going on, and so many businesses were suffering. It is really cool to see Oaxaca's tourism thriving now.
Pictures to come...

May God be gracious to us and bless us and make his face shine upon us, that your ways may be known on earth, your salvation among all nations. May the peoples praise you, O God; may all the nations be glad and sing for joy, for you rule the peoples justly and guide the nations of the earth. May the peoples praise you, O God; may all the peoples praise you. Then the land will yield its harvest, and God, our God, will bless us. God will bless us, and all the ends of the earth will fear him.
Because you are my help, I sing in the shadow of your wings. Psalm 63:7
