Before leaving work at the school, the kids finished up their artwork and their engllish classes where we taught fruits, body parts, and contined on the family trees. At the closing ceremony we were presented with certificates and more flowers. We participated in a Mexican Folk dance, costumes and all, which went well, other than a small collision. We all spent one more night at our homestay before we had to say goodbye to our hosts. We ordered them pizza and gave them their gifts. We are now in the weaving village, Teotitlan del valle. Here we learned how to weave rugs, and dye the wool, and went to an ancient chuch which was transformed from an old pyraimd using the same stones. We also celebrated Maggie's 15th birthday. It was nice to have a break since we have been working so hard with the children all week. We are all doing well and hope to hear from you!
