Group 3´s Day of Work

Today, group 3 returned to our worksite 45 minutes down the road from Tamahu. The house is almost done as all the walls and the roof are built. We worked on making the cement for the floor and the foreman took over distributing cement on one half of the floor and smoothing it ,so we finished work at around noontime. We only have to finish the floor now. We then decided to play with the kids at our worksite. They love looking at their own pictures and we tried to teach them some English (they only know how to say goodbye so far). I mostly played with some kids named Pito, Juan Monolo, Eddie, Londo, and Allebal. Juan Monolo actually learned my name and would not stop saying "Cam". When it was time to depart, the kids followed us all they way down the hill shouting goodbye. About halfway through our trip back to the church in Tamahu, we hitched a ride from the police all they way back to the center of town in the back of their truck. Tomorrow is market day and I want to finish our house and visit the malnutrition center. Tamahu is beautiful and everyone is so nice.
