Yesterday we volunteered at VAMOS, an organization that helps the poor, to help paint their building and prepare the food for their "la comida" (big meal of the day). It was a warm and sunny day, and the place was high up in the mountains outside of Cuernavaca. Once we left the outskirts of town and headed up, most of the roads were dirt with plenty of potholes.
The people that run the meal do have a routine. The children sit down and eat, brush their teeth (which I videoed), take a vitamin, then play or work on crafts. Of course, the kids don't always do it in that order.

Wonderful!
Paul, I really enjoyed seeing your pics these past few weeks. You will always be able to reflect on this experience. I shared some of them with Cathy Randall from Broad Acres, we had a few laughs at your comments. Please tell Diana I am the one who donated the ESOL materials to the Esperanza Center in June. Hope to hear from you soon.
