¡¡TGIF!!
We had another fun day at Nutre Hogar, it was sadly our last day with the babies. We took our last pictures with our special baby and then had a celebration with everyone who contributes to Nutre Hogar. It was a special moment when Maria gave her heartfelt speech that touched everyone's hearts. The food was delicious and had a relaxing time with each other. After everyone rested up, we headed to Santiago's famous dessert place, Cheesecake. After hearing Holly's previous experiences on her other trips, we headed home to hangout with our families. As time went on, the curse on Panama,(RAIN) started to pour down and had to be one of the worst storms we had so far on the trip. We ran outside and saw all of our neighbors standing outside, amazed at the harsh rain. We could barely hear each other inside the house because the rain hitting the roof sounded like rocks are coming down on us. Later on we gathered at Gerry's host family's house to have a fiesta! Filled with amazing Panamanian desserts and music, the night ended with endless laughs and unforgettable memories.
