Honduras-July 24th

This morning we woke up went down for breakfast at 9:30am, and my mom graciously let me go back to the room to the while so I could talk with my friends I had met in Cancun.
-went back upstairs for wifi; texted nick, Alex, and pearl. After breakfast we drove to another school  and enjoyed watching the school mom volunteers make lunches or "meriendas" for the schoolchildren. We talked to the moms and learned about the system they had organized so that each mother knew when they were needed to come cook at school. After our incredible visist, we started driving back to Tegucigalpa.


On the way back we grabbed a quick bite to eat then continued driving until we reached the home of Cardinal Rodriguez. We had barely any time, so we ran in, changed in the bathroom (into nice clothing), and went up to his room. We were so lucky that he took the time to sit down with us for a great amount of time telling us about his role and asking US questions. The experience was unforgettable.

After our wonderful meeting, we drove to the CRS hotel to meet the staff, then proceeded to our hotel. We relaxed in the hotel for a while due to our constant travel and I even got to speak once again with my friends from Cancun!

Around 7pm, we decided to leave the house and ended up going to a delicious Thai restaurant next door. The food was incredible and I personally thought even better than the Thai in Los Angeles!
