Day 2
A hot humid morning after a night of heavy rain. So much rain, a turtle had taken shelter in the restaurant with us at supper the previous night. Made for great pictures!Our inner-city distribution this second day was at a local school which serves the poor of the poor in this capital city. Throngs of children and parents blocked the streets waiting for their bedkits. Police and security maintained order.
Over the course of the next six hours, 469 children had their pictures taken and left with smiles on their faces and bedkits in-hand.
The Rotarian Governor of Central America visited the school. The school children danced honouring him and the team.
A tired group of school youth and volunteers and the SCAW team shared a wonderful Nicaraguan lunch, thankful for a successful day of knowing these children would sleep better tonight.
