Another adventurous day for all. We accomplished phase one of the construction. The rock foundation base is all fitted in, much to our exhausted pleasure. The next phases promise to challenge us as well. Vicki's trip to reclaim her luggage was successful, and also humbling. She felt the deep insight as to being the complete minority.
The clinic and town visit was eye-opening for the girls. We are all getting to know our hosts, and their challenges. We all take for granted certain comforts to which we've become accustomed. The culture here may not enjoy some of the amenities, but they are certainly no less happy and joyful.
My personal observation was in playing soccer with some young boys. They don't have organized leagues, good playing fields, and some without shoes to play in. But they have the same passion for the game, some showing great skills for their age, playing and learning when ever they can.
We look forward to tomorrow, and what new things we may discover about our hosts, and ourselves.

Wow sounds like you got a lot done already! What inspiration comes from hearing how the people there are touching your lives. It is amazing how joyous people are with less "conveniences" to complicate their lives.
