Shit happens

Helped feed babies today. They're not literally babies, only the youngest age group in the school, the 2 year-olds. One of the girls pissed and shat herself. Nice! Apart from that, finished off the construction of the sandbox in the playground, which will soon be open. It should be a great place for the kids to vent their energy. The school only holds 150 students at the moment, but it's hard work looking after them with a limited number staff and (this week) only a handful of volunteers.

By the way, the reason I haven't been able to upload any photos is because Cat forgot her USB cable at home. She put some photos on CD recently (Cusco and Cochabamba), but I haven't had a chance to look at them yet. Once I get back to La Paz I'll try to sort it out. Man, it's a pain in the ass not having a digital camera of my own! The French-Canadian guy who's volunteering with us is keeping a blog as well, and he's managed to get some photos on there of us in action at the Foundation and Villa Tunari, so I'll definitely put a link up to his website within the next couple of days. Or you can check out the photo section on the Angels of Hope website (see previous entry) to give you an idea of what volunteering here involves.
