Working Hard, the Costa Rican Way!

The interns have started a new week in the sunshine of Costa Rica. The week started with Sunday worship. We were all excited to hear some familiar tunes and the message of being made in God's image (thanks to translation by Arthur) has been a reminder for me all week. Back at camp there were many people to meet and simple Spanish to practice. I must have said "yo me llamo..." 30 times! Everyone here is so friendly and a smile goes a long way. 

Jesse, Josh, Rebecca and Maya are in program this week.


Rebecca the designated photographer is enjoying the time to be creative. Jesse has been following groups diligently to catch film for the final week-end memories presentation.


Josh and Maya have spent time making friends with the campers. (Josh is in the white shirt)

Nathan is the dedicated pool technician, waking early in the morning to have the pool clean for the campers.When he's done at the pool, Nathan picks up some other maintenance jobs.
 
 Picking delicious Costa Rican fruit? no, just taking down Christmas lights!

Gideon, David, Micha, Harald and Danielle have been doing Costa-Rican style maintenance:

 Costa Rican safety!!! Whatever gets the job done.
 Scrubbing the pool edges wasn't so bad with an eventual tan (after the burn disappears) for payment.
 Micha and Harald wanted to work with chainsaws, but what's wrong with this picture? 

Enjoying the sunshine,
KL
