Monday

Hi everyone. A full day today. In the morning we started off at the camp and had a great time with the campers. We worked with the kids while TP ate his 3rd breakfast. All the Stars kids could learn from the following video showing how you pass the ball accurately to feet, starring David, Salvador and Osiel.




Our team - Barcelona (Bobby, Erin, Tom and Jenn) won handsomely in the competitions leaving others to do "pink fluffy stars" as punishment. Peter led the group through copious experience at Cotting School in Lexington!

Here are some photos of our friends from the camp. First, Bobby and Salvador. He is really great and knows much more English than we (Bobby, TP and Rich) know Spanish.


Step aside Ginger, Erin has replaced you with Esteban - much better looking.


In the afternoon we went to the shelter camp again. There were fewer kids to day as many of the kids from yesterday were out in the fields with their parents picking coffee beans. The kids played Austin Powers for about an hour and loved it. The only thing they like better is using us for climbing frames! We played a game at the end and it turned into a scrum in a dust-bowl. No seismic events today but the kids at the shelter got very excited, pointing to the sky as there was a circular rainbow (don't know the exact term for it) round the sun and TP did the honors with the camera. (see below)


Here's a picture of Rich actually smiling for the 1st time this week. He came back from alledgedly jogging this morning claiming he had rolled his ankle. All you Stars parents out there that are considering sponsoring his Boston Marathon effort - don't bother- its not going to happen!
