8/1 – Slept in and then went downstairs to my gym with my mom! How great is that?! The gym has 4 pieces of equipment – treadmill, elliptical, bike, and a boflex type of machine – and yoga balls. How perfect! I was able to use the treadmill, elliptical, and yoga ball just like I would in the states! I then went with my mom to pick up my sibling from swimming practice in Valparaiso and she gave me a driving tour of the area. We then went to my grandma’s house for my cousin’s birthday. He turned 14, and I was able to meet my mom’s 2 sisters! Muy divertido and I love my new family!
