Peru 2009 - Entry 8: Saying Goodbye is Hard to Do

I don´t know if it´s the crazy amount of sugar in the picarones or the tearful goodbyes, but I have a massive headache! Today was a wonderful last day in the barrio. I can´t do it justice in one blog entry. Our time was spent playing jump rope with the kiddos, having competitions with the barrio leaders, a picarones-making contest, and a teaching on leadership. It was really, really tough to say goodbye. Some of the kids said goodbye six or seven times before we got in the taxis... just, really tough.

I´ll update more when we get back stateside. Right now it´s 10 pm and our taxis will be here at 5:45 tomorrow morning.

Thank you all so, so much for all of your support. Please pray for safe travels for our team, and I´ll see you soon!
