I had been quite ill earlier this week (from Tues/ Wed until Friday) and wasn't able to put my best foot forward with this stuff.
We continued our volunteer work in the kitchen at San Juan de Dios, where a woman named Wilma showed us a great deal about servanthood. She had a high standard for the food she prepared, and a high standard for its presentation. The food was presented to about 60 orphans, many who could not feed themselves. Yet she took pride in giving them the best food that she could. I peeled enough potatoes and chopped enough onions to last me a few years, but I loved what we did. She needed the help, and we helped her. Very satisfying experience.
Today's the last full day. We've got a bottle of champagne and tickets to Kusikay. Can't wait!
