After a very busy orientation weekend, Friday at 5 finally arrived! Families came with full car loads to meet their host daughters, sons and siblings. I am going to apologize for many of the BAD pictures, but for those interested in seeing what is going on, they are better than nothing. There was so much action I could not get every one to stand still for a picture. Jonna left with another host family since hers was moving to a new house that day, so she is tucked behind Bethany.

Some other activities of the weekend were tree climbing, packing 26 people in a 15 passenger microbus for a trip to Diriamba and then stopping to pick up two local passengers, chilling in hammocks and a walking tour of Jinotepe.
