Travel to...layover in Houston, TX...

" the kids were broken up into groups with adult leaders and sent off on an airport scavenger hunt which included the task of each doing a "random act of kindness" in the airport.  From what I heard, it was wild and crazy, lots of fun, and lots of energy was used up. 

 
They met up with Jim N. and including Jim, there were 20 in the group of bright yellow shirts!  Just before flight departure, they were having a briefing from Jim about what to expect when they landed and receiving last minute instructions." D.A.

Nicaragua at last...

"The group arrived without a hitch and they are presently sitting outside at their "hotel" under cover and it's pouring rain.  ... from the time they arrived it felt like  they were in a sauna.  The accommodations sound bare bones, each room full of bunk beds, but they are safe and happy to be there.
 
Tomorrow they begin work and will work both on the library and on a kitchen at the school." D.A.
