Day 26: Last Monday in Cuzco

Here I am at my final day of volunteering at Buen Pastor. Today we orchestrated a mini olympics for the girls. I am standing with the overall winner of the competition. I'm rockin' an American Bandits shirt in honor of my American pride. [[Special shout out to my pen pal, Scott Lewis for this  great Tee]]

Today, marks my last Monday in Cuzco. I truly can't believe that I have been here for 26 days.

Because it is Monday, I have a new teacher. Her name is Rebeca and today we learned about the Cuban Revolution. The information was very engaging. 

For our upcoming homework assignments we have to write two papers and prepare for one presentation IN ADDITION to our major presentation and paper that is due, for me, on Thursday.

After school, I went to Buen Pastor to volunteer for my final day. As the caption of my first photo states, Estefania, Nichole and I organized a mini olympic competition for the girls.

Here are the girls participating in the first event: Potato Sack Races

Here are the girls participating in the second event: Basketball Shots

Here are the girls participating in the third event: A Race

For the final event, we had a throwing competition, however I didn't get to take any pictures during that event.

The girls had a blast. It was great to see them all enjoying themselves. Overall, I think that it was a good way to end our time volunteering at Buen Pastor.

Here I am giving one of the awards - a neckalace - to one of the top 6 performers.

Finally, here is a picture of us and most of the girls at Buen Pastor.

After I completed my final community service hours, I went to Don Esteban's for a veggie sandwich and a pineapple juice. 

Oh yeah, and I used their wi-fi as well. 

I did some research on the life in Cuba today, because I have to write a paper on this topic as well as do a presentation on Wednesday. 

Time to continue onwards with my intense workload. 

Hasta manana mis amores!
