Day 1 and 2 of Brigades!

Hola!
Everything is going great here in Honduras. We just finished our second day of brigading! Yesterday the Medical Brigade saw roughly 300 patients and today about 400. We are learning lots through working with the doctors, dentists and nurse. The public health team spent yesterday cleaning up at their village and today are doing education workshops. They even made a skit for today (hopefully we will get an instant replay and record it!!) Tomorrow they will finally start their building. We hope all is well with you and we hope you will keep writing to us! We've made a list of all the parents who posted and we will make sure to send your best wishes to them!
Buneos Tardes a todos!

  3. Glad you guys are having an amazing experience!!! Better than sitting in class for the week...

    Laura, you would have enjoyed watching the Hockey game last night (USA vs. Canada) the US won in the end, 5-3. Say hi to Dr. Debs, Gilbert & Mayme, and the others for me. I'd say take lots of pictures... but I bet you're too busy to take many. Be Safe.
