Even here in Costa Rica people are celebrating. During the speech, the class we had brought one of the televisions into the classroom and tried to petition us to watch it instead of learning biology. Unfortunately, class work has priority over tv, but in the left over minutes at the end of the period we did watch part of it. It was dubbed over in spanish so I could only hear pieces of his strong voice, but it was enough. There are parties throughout the town, some in spanish, some in english. When I asked the students why they cared so much about the inauguration of an AMERICAN presidnet, they said "It is history, we are part of history!" So even in another country, they feel the change, they feel the potential with this new man as the head of our nation. And honestly, I feel it too.
