Thomas and Willem here. Today was a ridiculously incredible day. We woke up a tad drowsy but quickly our weary spirits were lifted when we started experimenting with Fire. We enjoyed a quick serving of deepfried eggs and a fresh, oh so fresh serving of mangoes. It was a experience that happened, (ohh yes it did).
We were then transported to the worksite. The day was full of hard work and burning sun, and lack of sunscreen. We, as a team had a member recieve a massive ear blister, and this person would rather they didn't have it. The day was rather progressive, we finished the towers of Re-bar. Then Matt V took a heroic tumble off the roof. His reason for falling was his competive drive to complete the school and to capture a smile. He will be fine. However earlier in the week Rachel also fell off her chair, in the middle of a food court (which happened to be quite busy), we and the Dominican population were brought together by the power of laughter. Thankyou Rachel young grasshopper. She fell for no reason, unlike Matt.
We ended the day by ending it. Some of us caught the scenery up on the rooftop while eating a marmalade sandwich. Some of the males went to get some soda pops. We also were delighted that we could eat supper at a appropriate time, and place. We did other things and activities and stuff that we have already mentioned. K-lo-k, Canada. I like to give a shout out to Lennart Devisser. Untill the next time we post a blog on the edudeo website,
Willem and Tom
