Friday, mid-day report

HOLA! We have been working our tails off, every morning we've been waking up at 7:00 o'clock and concreting at 8. It has been raining on and off for the last 2 days, and it's been making it difficult to work. Today it started to rain, and we had to cover the wet concrete with plastic. The people at Casa Hogar had us make the side walks a half a foot off the ground, and they were right. The water forms in around the side walks to cover the grass and make it look like a pond. It is so wet that i haven't been dry for 2 days straight and when it isn't raining, i'm still wet, because it's so humid. The food is really good and the kids are very cute and nice. My Spanish is getting good too, and some of the kids know some English.

There are a lot of bugs. There are mostly gnats, but there are also red ants all over my bed and in the bathroom sinks. One night I woke up and saw this black thing so I turned on the light and it was a salamander!

Everyone is having a blast (including the bugs)!
