church, the town and baseball

Sunday was our first day there. First we went to a church in Los Alcarrizos, the town where we were going to be working.Then we walked through the town and got to see what who we were about to help.
This little girl walked with me for so long, but she was barefoot. I asked if she wanted to be carried over some sharp rocks, and she said no. Then we almost walked over broken glass...




Then we got back to camp, changed, and played a wicked game of baseball against the neighborhood boys. It was so much fun. At one point a little boy sitting next to me said "Eso Americano tiene un brazo!" - he forgot I could understand so I began cracking up, then all the other boys laughed because I understood, because the boy had said "That American has an ARM!" referring to one of my friends up to bat.
