Tour [my walk home]

Everyday I walk 25 minutes to Doulos and then back again after school.  
I live near the campo (country) so whenever I go anywhere, I make this same trek.  
It's a straight shot down a street called The Avenida.  
It's a lovely walk that I am growing to love.  
Here, let me show you...

this is about halfway through my walk home

once I pass the baseball field, I know I only have 10 minutes left 

I love these trees!  Plus, when it's raining, they offer great refuge :)

the Avenida is two-way with a boulevard in the middle and sidewalks on both sides

I am going to need new shoes after all this walking...

I love passing this very sweet flower/garden place

little stores like this one line the street, but there are fewer as I get closer to my home

this is my favorite view of my walk

on my way I pass mottos, trucks, horses, runners, tables, chairs, dogs, and chickens

the family I'm living with owns a Columbian restaurant, which includes this cart... when I reach this, I know I'm very close

this is my turn!  I know I'm home when I see the chivas (goats)

now that I've turned, I can see my apartment up there on the right

up the steps to the second floor

and I'm home!
I live in a pretty great apartment with some pretty great people... I'm so blessed :)
