Feb. 26, 2010 Friday

friday has crept up again ... this week was good - the bathroom at the Copa Cabana is moving along well.  The fish tile is gorgeous.  The white floor is gorgeous.  The trim they bought is nixed and we will try to find another color that works.
the man of the day: Bruce from Calgary, Canada, master tile maker of the Copa Cabana - yuuuuuuuuuuuhuuuuuuuuuu

Just heard that airlines are considering charging more for fatter passengers !!!  a HAHAHA !  I think this is only fair.  How funny though !!!!

We need doctors in La Bocana. We need permanent doctors. I am wondering if Cuba is the solution. They send doctors all over the world and they train doctors for free. They are making a huge difference ... we saw the most interesting news falsh on BBC yesterday. Anybody can go there to study on a scholarship, all they ask is that you go back to the neediest neighborhood to practice medicine.

The English classes with the doctors is going so well. They do not even realize how well they are doing. I am proud of them.

The meeting yesterday was intersting - the FUNDACION LA BOCANA is slowly going to get off the ground. The president is Nelo. The vice is Nael. The secretary is Oralia. The treasurere is Edith.  We forgot to include Luis and I am sure he left early because he was upset. I have sent messages to all. I would like him to be the vice president junior. REally, if he hadn't moved everyone and everything - nothing would have happened.  I am upset with Jose. I think he is a lot of blablabla and no team or community aciton. No matter what he says.  He is just not a team player.
