I ran this one 8th grade class (one of many), and at the end, I asked if I could take a picture.
These are with my point and shoot again, so please excuse the quality. I'll try to get back to posting obscure shots that don't tell you anything about my trip again soon.
Here's the whole class, with Mary Cruz, the teacher. Also notice the cameo in the bottom right of the picture. You might have to look closely.
The teacher then asked "Does anyone want a picture of HIM?" I was swiftly surrounded by kids with cellphone cameras, all screaming my name. This was undoubtedly the closest I'll ever get to being a celebrity, and it was the weirdest. To get them to stop, I told them that if they all sat down and were quiet, I'd speak Spanish (I assumed this would never work, because they were freaking out). Within seconds, there was complete silence. "Well, that backfired," I said out loud and to myself, since no one understood.
They insisted on taking a picture with me in it. And so the mountain of kids reformed.

Sparky. I'm glad he is making it so far around the world...while still laying on his dog bed.
Did I tell you that my fam got a new dog and that he looks a lot like Sparky? He's small and a schneagle (half schnauser, half beagle). His name is Brinkley, and he loves everyone in the world (I think he would even love you). He and Sparky should kick it sometime. Will you guys be around when I get home on August 18th?
