We spent the morning continuing our work on the beds at the mission center. We made a lot of progress and the beds are looking great! After a delicious lunch, we made our way up to Apolonia's house to install a bed for her and visit her 3 girls, Anna, Silvia, and Jennifer. We brought them gifts and a lot of candy! We also got to paint nails and make bracelets with them! Apolonia loves her new bed as well. After we left and got some dinner we headed over to the childrens home to hang out with the kids and catch up with old friends.
Tuesday
We woke up at 4:30 am to make our way to Pacaya, which is a volcano about half an hour away from Villa Nueva. We hiked up the volcano, some of us took horses about half way up. Close to the top we got a chance to roast some marshmallows and make some S'mores. Although it was cloudy, it was still very beautiful.
Our first bed almost put together
