Thursday night before bedtime, I was playing with some of the kids outside under the trees in Cieneguilla, when Josias (7 years) climed up the little step ladder and started picking leaves. "Elin! I'm picking stars for you!" Then we tossed stars into the air and danced around in circles like crazy people. He's such a gentleman -- the next day he gave me flowers :)

And today, we went surfing. Not the kids, but us volunteers who had our day off. And when I mean surfing, I mean that I had no arm strength to push me up on to the board after all that paddling to get out to those sweet waves (note the legitimate use of "sweet", which is totally surfing lingo btw), so I just soared over the waves on my stomach screaming "EEEAAAGLE" all the way to shore. Then instead of a taxi, we walked one and a half hours home. Then, there was a definite Burger King delivery that went down -- my first time ever calling a delivery service, oohh yeah.

Here is a picture of Josias and Angelo blowing bubbles, and Angel shooting them down with his home-made rubber band rifle. Such a cool kid.
