Canoe Trip to Iba Oloja

Saturday, Sept 13

We enjoyed a canoe ride through the jungle and visited a small village in Iba Oloja--about an hour away from our compound.

This is our boat and driver. Otto scooped water, while he rowed.

Jenna, being goofy and her friend Dea

Water lilies along the way

Grass huts

This cute girl strapped on and is carrying her little sister =)

Mommy and twin girls

The Village School

These cute kids followed us around the school house

This pretty girl is also about to put together some mats with these green bundles

Russian letters that look like english letters but sound different. (These are the most important to learn so you don't get them mixed up.) В в - Pronounced like the "v" in "vet". (Equivalent to the english letter "v"). Е е - Pronounced like the "ye" in "yes". Н н - Pronounced like the "n" in "no". (Equivalent to the english letter "n"). Р р - Pronounced like the "r" in "run", but it is rolled. (Equivalent to the english letter "r"). С с - Pronounced like the "s" in "see". (Equivalent to the english letter "s"). (It might help to remember that it's used like the "s" sound in the english words "centre" and "cent".) У у - Pronounced like the "oo" in "boot" or "root". Х х - Pronounced like the "h" in "hello". However, this is often pronounced more like the "ch" in the Scottish "Loch" or German "Bach", or the mexican pronunciation of "x" in "Mexico".
