First Day at Nueva Frontera

Today was quite a day. Started with breakfast at 6:45. Before we were finished 4 tour buses of children and chaperones came with about 200 people. We finished eating quickly and left. 
Off from Sula to Nueva Frontera at 8:00. It is a 45 minute drive up the mountain. It was interesting to see pine trees. Was not expecting that. Over 30 minutes of the drive was on dirt road. In some places it was rough. But it was beautiful. 
Karen, Sherri and I began teaching a group of about 12 women and men about hygiene, spiritual stories, and the importance and use of this purified water. 
At around 11:45 we went to the elementary school to talk to them about the system. We went into just one room to do some activities. 

During the afternoon, some of the folks from the morning came back and taught the same lessons and activities that we had done in the morning to the new folks in the afternoon. There were maybe 15 or 18 new folks. 
We finished the day around 3:00. Then a 45 minute trek back down the mountain. Very satisfying but tiring day!

Early to bed tonight!
