Well, we just arrived at a Nicaraguan restaurant for dinner. Jeff takes the group here every year, and from what I hear, it's pretty legitimate!!! We are still safe and had a pretty amazing time at the homeless shelter. There is a pretty cool thing that happened: when Jeff and I (Cletis) got to the shelter, we chatted with the lady that was facilitating our group. We weren't received very well, especially when the lady was expecting 7-10 students, and we had 33 plus 7 adults! Well, after three shifts of teaching our students how to gut and prep a thanksgiving turkey, she was literally crying when we left! Our students had THAT kind of affect on her!!! It was so amazing to see how some joyful, willing students could soften hearts in such a manner!!! Well, food's here! Time to eat!
