Better Than Snow Days!

The past two days in Jamaica have been super busy, exciting, productive, and rainy!

We spent yesterday at St. Ann's Infant School painting a mural on their play area.  We had a special request for cartoon characters, so we picked the most colorful ones we could find and got to work.  Our students did a great job and really let their inner-artists shine. 



We were a little worried we might get rained on, so we worked double-time to paint. That didn't mean there wasn't a chance for some of our students to jump in a local soccer game. To let you know how that went, our students were marking success on who fell the least number of times...


Today, we took a trip to the St. Ann Bay Infirmary, where we spent some time getting to know the residents.  Some of us made beaded bracelets for our new friends while others sat and played games. We will be spending more time at the infirmary over the next week getting to know these wonderful people even more. 


The plan was to visit a waterfall this afternoon, but unfortunately it has rained nearly all day. We can't complain too much, since it has been in the high 70's all day and we're hundreds of miles away from the nearest snowflake!
