Field Trip with the Little Ones

As if our previous adventure wasn't enough Dennis and I went on the field trip with the younger students last week.  We went to Cahal Pech, a Mayan Ruin in the middle of San Ignacio.  A much shorter bus trip and a much hotter day, but we had fun with the kids.  (And we didn't have our speedy bus driver this time.)

Loading up outside the school in Buena Vista.

In the museum at Cahal Pech.

 The museum is nice and the walkways are well maintained.
Cahal Pech is more of a family-communal area, whereas Xunantunich
is a huge temple-formal place.  We like them both.

I put a bunch of photos of the students again.  I'm sure some of you
will recognize some of the kids you met in 2012.

We counted cows and horses on the bus ride.  We had 27 horses and well over 78 cows.  It was fun.  I also started to teach some of the
kids the "Caterpillar Song" that my daughter-in-law Amy taught me.
See Amy, you are responsible for little kids in Buena Vista walking
around singing about how only God can make a caterpillar!

I can name almost all of these, Thalia, Marisela, Mauda, Jonathan,
and in the front is Jayme.

 It was a hot, humid day but when you keep busy you don't notice it as much.  Many of these kids have not been here before.  Families don't get the opportunity to do "family type" outings here, no vehicles, money or time to go have fun as a family.  I think that's why so many moms came with us.

Love you guys!
