Hello blog readers! 🐌 This is Rachel and Sharmane, the Lider del Dias of today.
This morning 🌞, Ronni (our laundry man) came back with our last batch of laundry. He was very happy that we were in Nicaragua and we all took a picture with him!
Today, we continued our community action project (⚾️CAP) . We finished constructing all the furniture and we completed most of the painting. Both of us along with the rest of the group got covered in paint, but nonetheless, it was satisfying to be a part of this project that is very passionate about giving back to a welcoming community.
We finally got tahatas (fried plantains🍌- our favorite Nicaraguan snack) today for lunch after a full week (thanks Sharmane and Iris for the daily journals). Don Carlos👨🏽💼 is our man with the fried plantains.
While coming home from English tutoring, we had a little friend follow us around. A guard dog we called OB Shiba (off brand shiba) because of Sharmane. Lol. 🐶
As we are coming close to the end of this project, we are beginning to realize how close the day of coming home is. While we are excited about going back home in 4 days, we also have mixed feelings about leaving this city that we called home for the past week and a half.

Hey Abby,
Down to four sleeps. The paint job looks great. You guys do good work. Can’t wait to see the finished product. We’re getting excited to see you. Liv said she missed you today (unfortunately I think it was because she was doing the laundry)! No she actually misses you. Looking forward to hanging out at the cabin next week.

Sharmane,
You guys did a great job with painting! I can’t wait to hear about your adventures and the many things you’ve learned including your construction expertise. Maybe you can make us a piece of furniture when you get back, eh? 😉 Enjoy the rest of your stay and please don’t forget about the Momotombo Chocolate at the airport!
