Hola!

We spent our second week on the coast carrying lots of dirt. The walls are coming up on the classroom but unfortunately that’s the job of one skilled builder. The rest of us help out by carrying sand from the beach to mix concrete and excavating and carrying dirt to flatten out a play area near the school.

On Friday we joined in with the Minga, community wide project, of picking up rubbish and big driftwood off the beach. In the afternoons we’ve been taking well deserved naps on the beach. Some of the local fisherman offered to take us out to sea to set and bait lines. From out at sea we watched the sunset over the ocean and a dolphin came up to the side of the boat. This weekend we say goodbye to two members of the group who won´t be joining us in the Amazon next week.

We´ll miss you Freddy and Juliette!
