I was greeted this morning by a pancake breakfast, having slept through the previous P.B. (pancake breakfast). I was super pumped. Right then I knew today would be a good day. Team lifeworks 07'assembled at Anna's house around 8 and withdrew money for the day's shopping spree in San Jose. Before we could shop however, we returned to la Carpio to finish up our murals and lay sod. After housing our grassy carpets as to maximize the soddage and minimize the dusty rocky-dirt-age. Team impressionist art finished up completing mural scenes of butterfly wings and anatomically inaccurate mountain climbers. We wrapped things up around noon and headed over to San Jose to commence "shopping extraoanza 07". The group split up and meandered through endless alleys lined with merchants and their crazy selection of Costa Rican treats. In the end, the group amassed over a mile combined length of machete blade and countless canastas, along with shoes and mamas chines, which are small strawberry-like fruit covered in wiry barbs that, Once cracked open house white orbs that although have the consistency of a goat's eyeballs, are dee-lishus (in elan's accent). After returning to tour home stay house, team LW assembled once more at Anna's to construct small giveaways for the kids at tomorrows grand opening of the playground. We wrote, "su play de la esperanza -FHCR/LW" on heart Popsicle sticks. Tomorrow promise to be an exciting and rewarding day as we hand the playground over to "los nios de la epsperanza" of La Carpio. This is J-bone signing out. Representing the Garden State- See ya.
