Our last day of work in El Hato

Today was our last day of work up in the aldea (small town) of El Hato. There were a handful of kids around to talk to and who helped us with our work. We completed about 40 meters of the wall that surrounds the sports court and also repaired the pole and fence on one end as well as sections of the floor that had eroded. Before we left today we swept the whole court to get rid of all the leaves and dirt. Many blisters and sore muscles were earned in the process these past two weeks! Our Guatemalan work buddy/leader Maco said that Berwick sent a great group of workers and that we accomplished a lot!
