Another full day



























Again, all students arrived on time for school. They tell me that they are sleeping well and getting plenty to eat. (I imagine they will be craving a hamburger pretty soon!)
After class we loaded up in a van and went to a beautiful park called el Cerro de las Campanas (the Hill of the Bells). Lulu explained the story and history behind everything. The Benito Juarez statue was HUGE and there were amazing flowering trees and cacti everywhere. Some students learned how very prickly cacti are, as well as tasty.

After lunch, everyone came back to the school for cumbia dance lessons. It started to rain, but that didn't stop them! A dance teacher came and taught them some basic moves. After only about 20 minutes they were really dancing la cumbia! They looked great! I'm hoping they will want to do it again.
