Pura Vida!
Hi again! The past few days have been a blast. With our project nearing culmination, we've been having lots of fun and working hard.

Day 2 of our project started with an ice-breaker game called 'Cebolla' (Onion) in which two people would each hold an onion in one hand with a spoon, and use the other to try to knock their opponent's onion off of the spoon.

With the floor now clean, we applied a (blue) sealer to prepare for the process of tiling. After we finished working that day, we went to Doña Amable's house to learn how to cook 'picadillo de chayote'. It tasted great, and afterwards we had some fun figuring out riddles.

Day 3 of our project was a long, but satisfying, one. We dug an area out to create a sidewalk that will be built later. We prepared the mortar for the tiling process.
And finally, we began placing the tiles. Throughout the day, we split up into groups to help out in English class.
It's been a great week so far, and we're sad that it's coming to an end soon. We look forward to the last few days that we have left!
Hasta luego,
Jamie and Daiden
