Thursday: Day 5

 Yesterday was SOOOOOO fun, we got to do so many fun things, it was another long day as well but it was so dang fun.

We started our day out with a 8:30 restaurant breakfast and nice slow time at the table to talk about our day as the food came.

After breakfast we headed over to the orphanage to do activites with the kids. Now those were some of my favorite games we had played. We did music and Sports.

For Sports we ended up playing 9 square which is basically a game made out of pvc pipes and creates 9 squares above you, then you have a ball and hit it over your square into somebody else's and you do that until somebody misses the ball and it hits the ground.

For music station we played a couple games, we started out with a circle on the ground and sung to a song called "Avalanche" about a yodeling Austrian on a mountain side. Then we went to a bouncy ball game and that was really fun cause we went fast and slow, then slow and fast until we were screaming and laughing. then we did a pattern game with our hands and that was really fun and fast as well, and our hands and legs were red after.

Once actvities were done we split up, since yesterday was a long day we had the option to go back to the hotel and rest or go to Unrau for like two hours to do some more work, so we split up most of us went to Unrau and then the others went back to the hotel and took a nap or just rested. 

Then we had lunch at the Senorita's and that was really good, we had chicken and rice and keylime pie. then since we had a little time before our tour guide jupiter came for the hike we did photos with the Senortia's who were there.

Now this next part was so fun and took the longest and has the most photos. We went on a river hike with the older Leonel kids. We drove about an hour to a small town called Camala or near camala and went hiking. It started with a steep downhill to the river and then we crossed a bridge and there in front of us and below us was a giant flowing river. It was so fun, with the kids as soon as we got down to the river they started walking through the river and ahead of he group. We had so much fun, some of the boys got down and lay in the water while they waited for the group, some people miss stepped and fell into the water, and some were super careful and took the bank instead of going straight through it.

Overall it was super fun and super tiring, we hiked for about two hours down the river and then hiked out and back around on a dry higher road. We then drove to Jupiter's small cafe in Camala for dinner. The adults had Coffe drinks and the kids had Chocolate shakes, for dinner we had a sandwhich with chiken and cheese and a side of chips.

Then we drove back about an hour some of us fell asleep in the car. We dropped off the kids at the orphanage and then headed back to the hotel to sleep.
