Thusday in Mexico

Hello all! This is Kristen blogging in for our 3rd to last day here in Mexico.
Today began with a health counciense breakfast. For me that inclduded a double chocolate muffin, frence fries, and a pepsi. (*Ann does not endorse any food choices made by the individuals on this trip.) After that, we headed off to the church. On our trip to the work cite we created a team song. Inspired by the Black Eyed Peas, we created the song, "I gotta feeling, that todays gonna be a good day." That might not seem significant to most, but it was a huge step into the 21st century for those over 40.
After a 30 minute car ride, we arrived at the site. After waiting an additional 15 minutes, we discovered we didn't have keys to get in. We then piled into the van again and drove 20 minutes more to a new site, to which we did have keys. It was way up into the mountains and far away, so it was a great photo op.
We were (again) cleaning out a old nursery school which the Children of the Dump owned. There were very few specimen of wild life except for some lizards and a salmader. And Ann thought she saw a lion, which turned out to be a cow. Lionel, however, won the purple heart for the day. He and Scott attacked the jungle outside the building and he had a bad run in with a bush with thorns. He still carries the scars.
Ann informed the crew we were leaving alittle early, so we ate at the church and then went home to clean up. Ann then prepared for her messege and the rest of us went shopping. I have now learned how to say "NO" and not feel bad because the vendors tried to sell everything but the kitchen sink to me..
We then went to feed the chilren at the school. My friend Alexia and I helped in the nursery watching the babies,which were very cute.
I then had to say goodbye to my good friend Alexia, because tomorrow is our last work day and she won't be there. I am excited to go back home but I am going to miss my friends here
