2nd week in Xela

Ive just finished my 2nd week of lessons and my Spanish is getting a little better..This last week I was real busy with school and other activities..I am taking classes from 8-1pm every day.After that we eat a simple lunch with a family and I usually go for a walk with some other students into the countryside for 3 hrs or so until it gets dark and cold, we usually stop by a sweet little restaurant overlooking the city where we get some fresh tea or licuados and they have the best hot tea,chai,or cidar around here....
They even have a traditional adobe steam room which really hits the spot for me, its small adobe and block with 2 candles inside and a brick fireplace with a vent so the smoke is vented out and the bricks are super hot and you just throw water on them..
I also have been going to the hot baths which are volcanic steam which is great for the skin and throat. There is a big hole in the ground where boiling sulfuric water comes out and it is piped into the baths and is like 104 F or so...

This morning I hiked with a fbelgium friend koen for 2 hrs to another rustic steam sauna where volcanic steam just comes out of the ground and they build a rock and cementroom around it...Its so hot you can only stay in the room for a few minutes then you have to get in the cold shower to prevent passing out...Very Coool...
