This is my front yard, only gated one of the lot. It's nice we've got some plants I've never seen before, birds love our yard and their chirping is the most unique thing I've heard in awhile. I feel like in some weird alternate world when I walk outside.
That is the gate on the other side of our compound. There is a guard there 24/7. Safety is always a concerned in Ciudad Ojeda but we're taken care of in a lot of ways. I rarely feel unsafe. Things do happen though.
Front of our house, I'll put up pictures of the inside later. It is a giant house for two people. I have a closet that would make some people cry, it's absolutely huge and I do not use it like it should be used.
That's the rest of the compound, most of the houses are teachers. There are around three that aren't. I usually run around this in the morning with Godiva. I don't usually go that far, once I get into a routine I'll be able to put in the mileage.
This is Godiva, the sweetest dog I've met in awhile. I know the picture makes it look like her eye is all sorts of messed up, that isn't the case, I am just giving her the deepest scratch behind the ears. She gets a long well with the turtles.
Smalls.
Smalls again.
Biggie. ... actually this might be smalls again, Biggie is hard to find, and is afraid of everything.
Beer is okay, it comes in smaller containers, and is as close to water as I can get without being in a canoe but you can't complain. They have a weird system here where you bring back the empty beer bottles to buy more beer. I don't understand what they do with the bottles... and a part of me just feels like they fill them without cleaning them but its the only recycling that I've found. Til sunday!
