The last 3 days

I realize that I haven't posted in a few days and although I feel like not much has happened I should give an update regardless.

Two days ago we slept in and then Matt made us american omelets.  After which our 4 jobs were to 1) do our nails 2) clean our bodies 3) test the sand at the beach 4) clean our plates.  So basically we didn't do much.  However, we fought to hold a monopoly on the washing machine so that we could wash our cloths (one washer for 100+ people). 

Yesterday we raked 2 new sections while one our guards/grounds people cut down some trees and trimmed the hedges.  Which made our job that much more interesting. In the afternoon we worked on the craft room for a few hours,  as I said before this project will take a number of days.

In the evening we went for a walk on in down town by the water front.  This is apparently the thing to do for entertainment, as there were people everywhere.  Of course the women were dressed to the nines, walking up and down the water front in 4 inch heals.  There where carnival rides.  And much smoke and beer.  I felt like I was at the county fair wondering around waiting for the evening event to start.  What is the evening event?  A fire works show (which happens every night) and they do things a little different here.  They start with the grand finale and then end with 2 big single fireworks.

Today we spent all morning sweeping up the leaves and pine cones left from the trees that were taken down yesterday. Then in the afternoon we spent watching a movie while testing markers and planing for the next camp.  The evening was filled with conversation as we just never really stopped this after supper.  We ended with cake and tea to celebrate the return of friends.
