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.
