- We went back to TN2 for the last time. We all
had to get up really early, but oh well. We went to visit the
school in the morning. The kids were astounded by us and
especially Brendon. They all wanted to touch his hair. It was
really funny. We saw every grade except for sixth, because
they were gone. We played games with the kindergartners
first. They were all so adorable. The thing I liked about
their program was that every day each kid recieved a
nutritious snack and drink. After visiting the classrooms, it
was time to play games with the 4th and 5th graders (their
ages ranged from 9-15 years old, because it is hard for most
parents to get their kids to school on time and keep them
there). First we played this game where everyone made a
circle and a huge roll of string was thrown around,
symbolizing how TN2 and the USA were connected. After that we
had some relay races and one was a potatoe sack race that I
wasn't very good at. The kids wanted all of us Americans to
be in their lines and wanted pictures with us. After that, we
had a meeting with the principal and she told us a little bit
about the school and how it works. Aimee's favorite crispy
tortillas were our snack!

- We went back to our families after visiting
the school. Aimee and I were really tired, so we took a nap.
After we woke up we had dinner and went to the church to be
with the youth group and make crafts with the beads we had
brought. Gustavo (my lil buddy) was there. Aimee taught me
how to make a geko keychain and then i taught Addie. It was
alot of fun. It is almost time to leave and I am not ready
yet.
