Right now I am hanging out at a beautiful retreat in the mountains. It is probably one of the nicest places we have stayed. Its wonderful. The view from my window overlooks the city which is across the river from us now. It is nice a quiet, a time to relax.
On Friday, we finished our time with the students with a talent show. Our group redid a camp song. Its always an experience due to the fact none of the workers ever speak English at the place we go. After that, we enjoyed a “campfire” in the school with candles serving as the fire. We said thanks. We said goodbye. Sad really. I have spent almost every waking moment with these students for the last 2 weeks, and now suddenly, just as we arrived into their lives, we are gone. Hopefully we were able to help them in some sort of way on their journey of life.
The amusement park we went to on Wednesday and Thursday was great. Amazingly good time despite the rain. A bug just flew into my ear. Haha.
Sorry, just a random tangent. Now we are preparing to move to the next city to do that same thing all over again. This time the students know less English which will pose an interesting challenge. Please be thinking of us.
Now I go to rest, write, and read. What fun!
Thanks for staying tuned to the adventure. 3 weeks left!
