Hello everyone! We have arrived at our destination. What a beautiful drive down the Pacific coast through the mountains. We stopped to take some pictures along the way.
Our amazing team!
We are staying at Posada Don Diego campground. “Roughing it” for the next little while! It’ll toughen us all up a bit
Luckily for us, the tents were already set up for us in a cute, cosy little semi-circle.
So all we had to do was move right in!
Meals for the participants are in the restaurant on-site. Irene is a great cook. We’re going to be well-fed, that is for sure!
Right now, it’s orientation time. Looking forward to a great trip. Family and friends, make sure you remember to leave messages under the “Messages” section. I’ll be printing them off for everyone to read. When leaving messages, they will not show up right away because they will be put in a queue for approval before being posted.
Good night everyone! We’ll talk again tomorrow.

Thinking of you. Much love, Aunt Bec

To Sarah & Miriam,
Allo les filles, j’ai envoyé un premier message le 6 août, j’espère que vous l’avez eu. Je regarde les photos tous les jours et c’est rassurant de voir votre belle ‘bet’. J’espère que vous vivez l’expérience au maximum.
Sarah tu me manques mais je suis si heureuse pour toi. Je t’aime et j’ai bien hâte de voir d’autres photos.
Maman, grosse bise à vous deux xxx - Vous êtes divinement protégé.
Dear Justin and Jodi,
Hope your day went well!
We trust that the local children are teaching you a thing or two about football (soccer). Let us know how the children are and if you have managed to save any treats for them.
Drew, Eric and Little Eyes miss you.
Love Mom and Dad.
P.S. Post more pictures!
Hi Jodi and Justin. We are so proud of you. Hey, Jodi, I hope our camping at Logos Land helped you prepare!!!!! Your pictures are great. We’ll keep checking for more. All the best.
Love Penni, Robyn, Moxy, Roxy, Raisin and Po
Bien le bonjour jolie demoiselle, j’espere que tout va bien et que vous trippez ben raide (comme le serpent). Tu me manques, j’m'ennuie de ta voix et puis de ta tit face de singe. Profites de chaque seconde, vivez votre voyage à fond la caisse et revenez-nous grandies. Prends soin de ma tit mimi, elle non plus je l’oublie pas. Reviens-moi vite ………. I love u
Ton tit p….
Dear Justin and Jodi,
Awesome pictures!
We love watching the progress of the project.
No pictures of you with power tools, Justin, that would be good thing.
Jodi, I hope that they warned you that you could not bring the children home. You will make a great teacher.
We also did not realize how dry the area was. All the tourist areas are so lush and green. A tourist gets such a filtered version of a country. You are getting first hand exposure to the environment and culture.
We were thinking that perhaps you should find a small corner of the new house and the team should each leave their initials. That way, in years to come when you return, you can say “There is the house that I helped build”.
Love Mom and Dad
Ma belle Sarah d’amour,
J’espère que tu vas biens, je pense à toi souvent. J’avais juste envie de te dire que je t’aime. Je t’envoie plein de belles pensées, je te fais un gros câlin, fort fort fort. J’ai bien hâte de te prendre dans mes bras et d’avoir le plaisir de voir tes beaux yeux et ton radieux sourire, tu me manques. Je regarde le site tous les jours dans l’espoir de vous appercevoir. J’imagine que très bientôt il y aura de nouvelles photos. Enjoy every moment of this fantastic experience. Je t’aime.

Je t’aime, continues de vibrer au niveau de ton être, tu es lumière qui apporte lumière. Maman xxxxxxxxxxxxxx
