Today
is still a holiday in Lima
The
PPA girls took a cab as usual to PPA.
Maddy and Jacquie went to Nino
Jesus for the morning. Today, everyone
cried. Maddy and Jacquie took turns
helping the two-year olds look out the window to watch men working on the
grounds. They were fascinated. Some of them didn’t want to leave.
Blanche,
Maddy and Edith continued her work on the library. They talked about the job of patching up the
holes, sanding and priming. They were
covered in dust, as usual, when we met them for lunch.
With
La Molina closed for the holiday, Kay joined us at PPA. She had six classes of middle schoolers to
teach English to. She spent time
searching Global Volunteers’ resources to make sure she could keep the kids busy
and interested for an hour. Maddy went
with her and turned out to be the star of the afternoon class with seventh
grade girls. They wanted to know all
about her.
Edith,
Maddy and Blanche talked about the library.
One wall will be covered with a picture of Machu Pichu. Other colors could not be picked until the
picture was selected.
The
girls spent another night out at at Mavery’s.
The girls regaled each other with stories, most of which were
funny. The girls had a great time. We desperately searched the menu for a new
culinary adventure. Maddy was in Chi Cha
heaven. Jacquie, Kay and Blanche dined
to Pisco sours.
