I had the opportunity to deliver more school supplies today with Rotarians of Boquete and my friend, Dina. The kids are so precious and so appreciative. One school we visited was VERY remote and far, far, far...well, I guess it seemed much further than it was because we drove there and the roads were terrible. We all felt like we were riding a roller coaster in slow motion for about an hour. And to think that the children walk that far to school every day! It was interesting to note that at one school, a handful of parents even showed up to show their appreciation to Rotary for supplying their child(ren) with school supplies. Each school has students that stood up to either thank us verbally or in a song. It was great!
Today I am extremely tired, and it is only Tuesday. I am so happy I am taking yoga classes, though, because they really help calm my body and mind. Love my yoga class!
On Friday morning I am looking forward to visiting a clinic with a Nutritionist here that works for the Health Dept. She is going to expose me to the dire needs of the community and with specific populations. That should be really quite interesting. I will update you on how that goes.
