Day 4

Rise and shine! We were up at 7:00am again this morning. After breakfast we were off to the school again to continue block laying. Today was a very hot, sunny day! We drank lots of water and we made a lot of progress!

After lunch we went for a stroll in the village and Dave got a spiffy haircut by the local barber, Joel Peluqueria. Bill was showing off his Spanish skills and told the teachers that he was "embarrassed" but instead told them in Spanish that he was pregnant. Oops! We worked till around 4:00pm and Daniels father came to pick us up to return to the mission center. After showering and relaxing we had dinner at 6:00pm. We got together for devotions and had a lengthy discussion. Then we played a lively game of yahtzee and euchre. There was a lot of noise going on tonight! Now it’s off to bed to rest our weary bones. Goodnight!
