Lots of Work, Sun and Friends in Antigua

Lifetime Friends

Today was great! Coming on this trip I was a little hesitant because I only knew 3 people. I was so scared to be in a house/room with a bunch of random girls, but I’m so happy I was. The girls I’ve become close with are so amazing and I’m so happy to have made such awesome new friends. We all work together so well whether it is at our worksite or just hanging out. it’s great. It’s only day 2 and I feel like I’ve known these girls for a lifetime. I can’t wait for days 3-8.

Coconut Milk and Sunburn

Today I got to work at the Gilbert worksite for the second time. I got to do so much work these past two days from painting boards to working on the roof. Even though I got sunburn in the process it was worth it. During our lunch break we got to drink the coconut milk from one of the coconut trees. I’ve had so much fun at the worksite the past two days, but I’m really excited to work at the other worksite with the kids. And cement work. I’ve made many new friends during these past few days, and shared so many new experiences with them. I can’t wait for the many days to come.

Nailing it Down!

Today I had fun climbing and nailing down a roof. I actually got over 2 fears the last two days. I got over my fear of lizards and my fear of being on a roof. I stood on a roof and I held a lizard. I surprisingly got a sunburn. I got to play cards and even drink straight from a coconut. I also found out that I’m a very good photographer.
