FRIDAY by IanSaRen

We woke up to finish the patio and say farewell and adios to the orphans. It was a special goodbye as a few of them shared their thanks through a translator and they each handed us letters of gratitude that they had written. We headed back to the widows house, stopping on the way to buy Pringles and chilled bevs. When we arrived to the widows house we transported the clothes we had brought (donated by people from Stanwich church) to their shack, which doubled as a sauna. People from the town lined up to receive clothes from us. One woman came with her ten children. After another dip in the stream, we were chased from the stream up the mountain as dark rain clouds loomed overhead. Thankfully we made it out of the dense foresty region with only a few raindrops daring to touch our windshield wipers. PRAISE THE LORD!!!!!!!! We arrived for dinner at Pollo Campero where we enjoyed the play pen, ice cream, and, naturally, the pollo (which is CHICKEN if you don´t know that). We headed back to Rafi´s church for the night.
