Day at the Park


On Tuesday, Michael and I spent the afternoon with girls at the orphanage. As soon as we arrived, more than a hundred girls approached us with open arms. We distributed ice cream and spent the next three hours running around with girls holding our hands. Despite lacking skills in basketball, the girls were surprisingly talented at volleyball. Michael and I played on opposing teams in a close 3-set match, and my team won!

On Wednesday, Jessica, Michael and I spent the afternoon at a park interviewing people for our study. It was a beautiful day and the people were more than willing to participate. We gathered information about social networks in Piura, and we successfully collected enough data to complete our study! As Jessica and Michael finished their interviews, I enjoyed a peaceful nap under the palm trees.

We will be leaving for Mancora tomorrow morning! Jessica has recovered and we have completed our interviews so we can't wait to go have fun at the beach! I will share pictures with you as soon as we return!
