Friday (Day 2)

BUSY day today! The guys started digging the trench first thing this morning for the internet cable that they were running from the Foundation to restaurant. Only broke 2 water lines, got many blisters, but by dinner, the restaurant had internet! Meanwhile, the ladies were organizing closets, painting the sewing room and doing crafts with the kids. The weather is HOT during the day but thankfully cools off at night. The kids are wonderful and in good health. We are going to have trouble getting Ileana to leave. I had forgotten just how wonderful it is to be here with the kids. We went to the bank today to exchange our money. We don't realize what we take for granted until you walk into a bank here and get frisked by security and have armed guards let you into the building. Alejandra y Ali are sitting next to me as I type. The rest of the kids are jumping rope-it's a good night in Honduras... -Rhonda
