Spider in the shower

Hola Gringos,
Today was another great day in Nicaragua.  We had our first community service project and started our spanish lessons.  There were two different service projects that were eye opening and a great way to experience the culture.  Two groups of three went to two different schools to help young kids with math and writing.  This put into perspective how little so many kids have but how happy they are with what they have.  The rest of the group went to the reserve where they learned about the plants at the reserve and helped water them all.  After our community service we came back to el Piscacho to have lunch and have our spanish lessons.  Many of us learned about Nicaragua and there culture.  We then had dinner and some people started to shower when we heard a piercing scream.. it was Eilis.  We found her in her soaking wet towel bawling her eyes out.  She was pointing towards the shower mumbling...SPSPSPSPSPIDERRR!!!!!!!!!!!! We went to the shower to find a spider the size of her hand.  The picture says it all, now she is FURTHERMORE traumatized.
