so, clearly october and november have been busy as well since i haven´t gotten a chance to update in some time. i will try to get back soon to post some pictures... in october, i spent a week traveling in nicaragua with a few other ladies of tico 18 which was super nice. the rest of the time has been getting some more projects done in my town. we have almost finished the medical center, gotten the playground fenced in and accompanied by some tables and benches, and have legalized the womens group. this past weekend was a school fair where we had a bingo, food sales, a beautyish competition for the kids, and lots of sales of old clothes, plants, etc. they even made a mechanical bull using one of those big metal trashcans. we´ve also had a few dances and soccer tournaments and are planning fiestas for the end of january. so whoever wants to see some bull running, you should come the last weekend in january haha. the women´s association has some businesses that are going well, one being a chicken farm. tomorrow we have to go kill a bunch of chickens, ick. oh and boy and girl scouts has been up and running as well. so all in all things have been really successful recently. theres a lot more to do in these last 6 months (crazy!!) like getting the library up and running, working with the rest of the womens businesses, getting our recycling project working, trying to fight to get a computer lab, and lots more. any ideas are welcomed hahaha.
check back soon for some pictures. also, come visit!
