The Outrigger Hotel is one of two tourist oriented hotels on the island. This is the hotel where I previously wrote about the all-you-can-eat buffet. A wonderful place. In the back of the hotel they have a retaining wall that, depending on the tide, creates between a 7 - 15 foot drop down into the ocean. On weekends I head over alone or with friends for a little play time. Jumping is not only fun, but every time I jump off I feel like it makes up a little bit for the Boundary Waters Cliff Jumping Incident of 2006. Oh, a little bit of added danger: on more than one occasion I have seen a sting ray swimming in this same area. Ahhh! Crocodile Hunter!
Marshall Islands Club is one of my favorite places to relax when I am in town for the weekend. In this picture I am sitting with Robyee and Tim watching an amazing game of shuffleboard. Yes, shuffleboard. This particular establishment not only has delicious pizza but shuffleboard! It is also the only restaurant that I have found that is located on ocean side of the island which adds a wonderful view and cool breeze to the list of things I love about MIC. 
This amazing little man is Joraur. He is in my first grade class and also lives about a half mile from me. He is very smart and always wanting to learn. this picture is taken in the library where I also work. He came in during recess to read with me. I had a ton of work today, but who can so no to a child who wants to read! I will post more pictures, but it takes forever and I don't have time right now. The Taiwanese Farming Project here gave away fresh produce this weekend. I am heading over to make grilled eggplant sandwiches with Robyee. Yummy!
I miss you all and will post again soon.

Grandma and I are at Matt's, just wanted to say hello
Woohoo! Sounds like everything is going well. I was concerned, as you'll read in my letter that is currenly en route to Majaro, because there was a ten day gap between posts not too long ago.
Oh, and were't we having a conversation about normalization around a month before you left. Hmmm, I can't seem to remember who was arguing for the idea of normalization...?
