1) While eating, you are supposed to keep your hands on or above table level (the lap is a dirty place)
2) When paying for something, you are to give the money directly to the attendant, don’t put the money on the counter
3) An after-shock feels much more ominous when the country has recently had an earthquake (6:15 this am)
4) Santiago is HUGE! (I’m used to “small-town” capitals like Asuncion and San Jose). Santiago has more people than all of the country of Paraguay.
5) The Santiago Christian Academy (SCA) library has probably over 6000 books, and we have catalogued 1986 so far.
6) Short-termers are GREAT assets—especially Stephanie and Lizzie.
7) The people at SCA show and tell their country very well; they’re also very generous with flowers, cakes, suppers, restaurants, etc.
8) Being in Chile, although it’s very different from Paraguay, gives me that same South America feel… I wish I could describe it in words.
