Another successful build for our volunteers. The appreciation of the families was genuine. I believe many on our team have had a memorable experience. We hope it has been evrything they had expected, it certainly was for Paul and I. We are seriously considering another El salvador build nrext year.
After the build finished at lunch we had our closing ceremony with the families. Each of our team members was given a team picture and certificate from Habitat. After that many of us visited an orphanage. There were about 100 kids each living in a house with a mom. The houses were bigger than the typical Habitat house and were well equipped to provide a comfortable lifestyle for the kids.
We also visited a Habitat site that had homes that were started by Joe McGuire's team. They were looking great and had a mountain view of St. Vicente.
Tomorrow we leave for the ocean. Everyone is looking forward to a couple of days of R & R.
