Test Day 3, Friday (1/28)

Whew, it seems like forever since I updated!  Friday, Friday, Friday, what happened Friday?  Oh yeah, I was with medianas, which is third and fourth graders.  Once again, sweet group and they have a great encargada who really looks out for them.  Their schedule was a little different in that they didn't go to school until 8am.  And since it was Friday, the day was much longer.  All the kids spent time after dinner playing in the main plaza.  Entertainment consisted of about ten different variations of soccer, jump rope, volleyball, tag, and other fun versions of rough housing.  This went on until about 9:30pm at which point the kids headed back to their dorms.  Friday also happened to be Dan's birthday!  We left the house briefly to celebrate a little in town and then had a cake to share back at our sala as well.  All in all, a good day, but longer than previously experienced.
