dinner with the mayor

Tonight was our last night eating dinner here at the hotel. It was sad but so much fun!

We had our last meeting with everyone reflecting on the month, what we have done, what we haven't done and what we are planning to try to do for the future (with some amazing reflections on the human condition from dr bendezu) and just as we were wrapping up, guido, the mayor walks in. so we invited him and his driver to stay for dinner.... which they gladly did.

we discussed our ideas for developing a womens' shelter, pediatric care and women's care and the mayor was Completely on the same page. it was great.

after dinner we brought out the gigantic cake that we bought with our free time today (unfortunately there was a strike today and we weren't able to go to Matinga hoy dia. vamos manana), to present as a thank you to all of the staff here at the hotel... parecia que estabban muy feliz :)

durante la cena, dr bendezu explico futbol americano a guido, y le prometo que vamos a traerlo a un partido cuando venira a los EEUU en deciembre para nuestro celebration (banquet slash silent auction)... :) esto seria TAN chistoso... tal vez voy a ir a mi primero partido en este tiempo tambien!!?

manana es nuestro ultima dia - es triste pero tambien me siento que ya hemos hecho mucho, no exactamente en respecto a cuidado medical, pero en haciendo muchos amigos nuevos, y planes buenos para el futuro!

hasta pronto mis lectores!!!
