We just posted some more updated pictures to go along with our descriptions of recent events on the Summer Service trip. Here are four more videos that might give you more of a feel for the places.
First there is the village of El Chico that Aaron blogged about:
Right when we arrived at El Chico by boat, we were greeted and sat in a circle sharing our stories out side one of their huts.
Second is a video of learning how to make tomalitos as Sarah blogged about (under my name...):
Sarah in the kitchen with the women at the church in La Lolita. They were very impressed with how quickly she learned to make tomalitos (more)
Third is a video of our work site for the chicken coop we built in La Lolita:
Here we are working on the chicken coop on a piece of pasture outside of La Lolita, Guatemala. Some cutting, some dragging, some digging, some cementing, etc. etc.
Last is a short video of the road we had to travel to La Lolita (but you can't see the bandits hiding in the bushes...):
This is a short clip of the dirt road we were on when we were stopped by bandits on our way to build our chicken coop. Taken several days earlier, you can just see the rise on the left side of the road around where the bandits ended up jumping out of the sugar cane.
You rock, Michael! Thanks for the pics and video.
