Out with a bang






It was our last day of volunteering at the favela today and we ended things on a real high note. Dani, Jordan, Haley and I finished the painting that Steph and I had stenciled out earlier and it actually ended up looking quite cool.

The kids were excited and happy to help out and the community leaders showed a wonderful display of affection for us.

In the afternoon, we didn't participate in any co-ordinated activity, but instead just 'played' with the children. Dani had bought face paint and nail polish and I had brought stickers and souvenirs from home so we just shared presents and laughs.

I'll write more about the favela later, right now I'll post the pictures so you can get a sense of it all.
