Today was "holiday" for everyone. This meant that the kids were not on a strict schedule and were able play volleyball, kick ball, jump rope, go swimming etc etc with our team. The kids are so warm and friendly (as are the leaders)...Out of respect, the kids call us "uncle" and "auntie". It's sweet. They love to see pictures of our families- and we have sat down and showed them who our families are and told them about each of you! One girl on our team, Heather, they call "Thelma" off of Scooby-Doo and when they saw a picture of my brothers (Travis, Skyler, and Rees) they called them "Shaggy" off of Scooby-Doo.
We played in the ocean again today! It is so warm and salty... Some of the team has been bitten by mosquitos, but most of us have been fine...We are tired but happy.
Today was also the start of our homework load...Assignments were due... Our tropical-bliss is now tainted with the reality that we are still in nursing school!!! It almost feels like we are on vacation (must be the weather and the beach!).
