The ¨rising freshmen¨ are going to put their collective and creative minds together shortly to write their thoughts about our time in Aramasi on Sunday and Monday, and about today-- our last moments here in La Villa. Right now, everyone is in the gym on our last morning in Cochabamba teaching the children of Kantuta and other houses how to play kickball. Leslie and Carroll brought the ball with them--blown up in their suitcase. That´s Kimball determination!
Saturday, we went to the Cristo statue and then La Cancha, the open air market. After that we took the entire Kantuta House out for an afternoon in a local park. The park has bumper cars, bikes to rent, terrifying spinning devices, swings and slides galore. We bought them ice cream and loved seeing their faces as they devoured it. There were several Kodak moments--
Neysa staying close to Mama Maria, who has to walk slowly.
Karina being brave and riding the spinning tire with Evelyn, Johnny and other children.
Luke being equally brave but then a bit dizzy afterward.
Kendrick bonding with Alex and receiving gifts of flowers from the beautiful blooming trees on the way back to the bus.
Kelsey enduring Wilson´s extremely loud talent of clicking his tongue in her ear.
John and Devin carefully teaching Felicidad and Noamina how to ride bikes around the path.
Leslie and Wilson sliding together either headfirst or standing up at amazing speeds ''muy rapido!¨with screams-- some of those from the chaperones.
Kelly having Sylvia, Marina and Delina tug her in many directions all the while grinning
Sylvia falling asleep on the bus ride back to La Villa surrounded by 12 exhausted and blissful CCC travelers.
More to follow by Devin, John, Kelly and Leslie. . .
