Monday

We worked half-day today and had lunch and sung worship songs (soooo good; thank you Jason and Daniel! they played with an electric guitar that Luis brought out) and socialized and then Daniella organized us so that we sat in a circle and played Hot Potato. Anyone who got stuck with the "hot potato" when Jason stopped the music (he was playing acoustic guitar) had to do motions to a song about a duck. You had to hop on one foot, then on two feet, then flap your arms and peck at food and dance or something. Luis y Daniella y Mary Lou (we prayed for her) y Leo y Roxianna y Elda y Walter y Hugo y Tatiana y Marienta/Marrianna y Juan David y Elias were there. Mary Lou also brought some family members to help with the food. For lunch, we had peanut soup again because she thought that Ed would be there today. He is coming in tonight. We also had the empanadas (I am seriously going to look up Bolivian restaurants at home) and, of course, soda.

Cory has said such funny things...he pretends to be on the Nature Channel and in an Australian accent says that we're on a safari and "Ah, the sound of the Dustin." *silence* (Dustin doesn't talk much) and the sound of the Kailey (giggles) and the sound of the Lynne (stoppit! stoppit! said very quickly). Lynne has been the mother for the entire team.

We completed about three more rows of bricks today. It was fun and the window is taller than I am.

We are going shopping at 3:30 at the jewelry store. The stores here take siestas during the middle of the day. We got back to the l'hotel at 2 and took showers and packed and took naps. At 7:00, I think, we are going to have a pizza good-bye party here. It was going to be at the church but it will be a lot easier for us to have it here.

If anyone is on facebook and hasn't yet looked at the pictures, look at Herb's, Cory's, and my mom's pictures. Public look is: http://www.facebook.com/album.php?aid=19499&id=1724721374&l=8a5ea4a79e
