Day 3

Today we woke up extra early to go grab breakfast. Everyone was excited that there was rice and beans again, along with eggs, and fruit. We loaded the buses and headed off to Pedro's house to do a lot of hard work. Today we turned the ground in our 7x12 (meters)garden, which was very exhausting. We had an assembly line with picks, hoes, shovels, and rakes which worked for a little until everyone walked on it. We met an interesting man today who came to serenade us, but once we offered him a shovel he went straight to work. Our lunch was very good with more rice, beans, and beef stew, although the new red Fanta was interesting, yet gross. We went to finish the garden and then left around 3:45. Fortunately, earlier another youth group had left so we got to grab their rooms with hot showers. We left and met at the San Lucas to have another fun night with the kids. We had various games to play including four corners, human knot, and the name game along with hot popcorn cooked by Cindy and Amy. We headed back to the buses saying our goodbyes to the children. We all got together like in previous nights and shared our wows and pows with each other. We are very tired and ready to get back to bed.
