Today, or should I say yesterday, we ate the standard breakfast, and headed out. After the extremely long bus ride, we arrived at the school for the deaf and the blind children. Even though they couldn't hear, they still could feel the vibrations of the drums, so they put on an amazing display of dancing for us. A few of the staff gave us a tour of their school, and it was a very large campus. They were even working on building a new dining hall for the children, one with gas stoves instead of a fireplace so that it would be cooler. After a delicious lunch of chicken, beans, rice, plantains, and fresh fruit, we got to watch a soccer game played by the older children. Some of us even got to play along side them. After the soccer game, we hung some bed nets designed to keep out mosquitos in one of the girls' dorms. That took all day, so we didn't have time to go anywhere else. We were all tired, so we pretty much just fell asleep when we got back to the hotel. Goodnight everyone.
AB - you are an animal! We miss you!
