Day 5

Hi everyone,
Today is our fifth day here in Belize. This morning, we had fried jacks, refried beans, watermelon, and pineapple. We then set up foldable microscopes to take to the school. At 8:30, we started working on the fence. Some of us completed a part of the fence while the others mixed and poured cement to reinforce a new portion. Around 9:45, while waiting for the cement mixer truck that eventually came at 1:00, we dispersed ourselves and went to different classrooms in the school, helping them with their classwork, playing games with them, or helping them make decorations for their graduation. The students were really fun to be with! Then we had lunch and went to the Mayan museum to learned about the Mayan culture and their way of making tortillas. We made some and ate them, and they even let us make a coffee tortilla! 
Next we will get ready to go spend our first night with the homestay families!
