Yes, this is the Caribbean! It was so nice to have a day after working so hard for 10 days to have a break. Of course, the water was nice too, since most of us had not had showers for days! The water was so beautiful and clear. It was a gorgeous day. We played in the water, went for a walk/climb down the beach, played in the water, got burned, played in the water. Ok, you get the idea, it was relaxing and fun!
Victor being silly. I think that is a clay nose.... :-)He speaks a very LIMITED amount of English and yet somehow we all communicated easily with him. His famous line was: "What's up, Woman?" Yet, with his accent, it was hilarious and made us laugh every time!
Caracas! I know this is a bad pic, but you can see from it a little of the crowded barrios, slums. They are just packed in there. There are not really roads to the top really. You would not be able to drive a car up to the top. Most of the people living here wouldn't have a car anyway, because they are more expensive there than in America.This is a better picture of some of the slums. This is right by where we went shopping in Caracas.

This is the group of the kids at the camp. The "neighborhood" we were in had about 10,000 people living there. It was a middle class neighborhood.
