'It’s sad but true, I can’t stop eating.' Sarah Gadway just said this when we brought out the cheesecake. I am currently eating a slice and getting a massage from Diana. God bless Mexico.
What a beautiful day it was in la communidad Villarutia. Villarutia is just one of the communities squatting on the steep hills of Tijuana. What we helped with today was to dig up old tires and put them in a crevice of the earth that was taking ground away from the community. There was a shortage of shovels, so God gave me the opportunity to pull weeds with some women and my new seven-year-old friend Isaac. It has been such a blessing to talk en espanol with my new friends, and they have been very gracious in trying to understand me. After our lunch, some of us played soccer with the kids. I’m not sure if he realized this, but after Tony found out I was on his team, he said, 'Our team is at a disadvantage.' What a chicharron…[Editor’s note: Sarah Keck confirmed even if I did say this, the reason was our team had fewer players. Also, great use of “chicharron” Alexis!]
To top off the day, after returning to the ranch I proceeded to slab hair gel all over my various sunburns. I found it in Amanda’s bag, and it really looked like aloe. I must go to bed soon…
Gracis a Dios por este dia.
