Day 5- This is a pool of apple juice, with monkeys with swimmies

Last night update: finally got into the pool and it was awesome (most awesome part was that absolutely no one was around).  I got Skype and gchat to work finally and got to hear a clarinet solo (awesomeness).  We went to supper: buns, salad, green beans and fried potato slices, and chocolate cake with chocolate sauce on top (I ate a lot of buns).  We had the lights out before 900.

We woke up at 530- this time with no alarm clock problems.  However, new problems arose- no water.  So, we had to fill up our water bottles in Lisa's room and did not get a chance to refill our extra water for the truck.  Luckily, Chris had filled up an extra water for yesterday, so, we took that one.  We got a slightly late start, and then ate breakfast and picked up lunch at Mrs. Chocs.  I french-braided Kayla's hair so that it wouldn't bother her in the field so much.


We started work around 730 and began clearing the backdirt some more.  The photo above is what we have been working on- isn't the site beautiful??  We actually got some sunlight today.  And the jungle was so pretty- Tara, of course being the bubbly one, commented the most strongly about it.  We also had smiley-face dustpans (which, sorry to say, there is no pic of).  It made my day.  Tara says my voice goes up an octave when I talk to Steve or when I talked about smiley-face dustpans.

We got out of the field around 200 so that Lisa could finish up some stuff.  Another ride in the truck and we were home again :)
