Yesterday was a busy day. After a delicious breakfast, we got on the bus to go to St. John's School. When we got off of the bus all of the elementary students were waiting to greet us. Some parents even came to meet us. All of the kids were wearing their best clothes. We got to watch multiple singing and dance performances by the kids, and even a Bollywood dance by one of the parents. While at the school we were able to inaugurate the new filtration system installed at the school with the help of Hope Charities. They showed their gratitude to us by making us a cake, which we all got a piece of and the leftover was given to the kids. We were also able to give each student a Riverdale pencil. After a few words of thanks from one of the teachers, we said goodbye.

Back at the house we ate lunch and had some time to rest. The girls got measured for their sarees. We decided that today would be a good day to go to the beach. After an hour long bus ride most of us went on a short camel ride along the beach. We sat and watched the picturesque sunset, while Tal took a timelapsed. After the sunset we went back to the house to eat dinner and have our first dance lesson. Even though we were tired from the long day we tried our best. We started with some simple steps, but after awhile we all decided to go bed. Now we are waking up and waiting to eat breakfast.

Be Well,

Paula
