Last Week Day

We finished up our last day at CISNA and CIPI today.  It was a little hard to say good-bye to some of the girls that we've gotten to know over the past 2 weeks.  After we got back to the Promise House, we all showered and changed and headed out for dinner.  We went to La Gran Via, which is an outdoor mall in El Salvador. (Definitely a ¨rich Salvadorian¨ hang-out place).  We had a really fun time eating dinner, walking around and then getting ice cream.  They were having a little celebration for the World Cup and had people dressed up for each country represented in the competition.  There was dancing and lots of music, it was cool to be a part of it.  Then it started to pour rain while we were waiting for our ride.  When Hermano Jorge pulled up we couldn´t really tell if it was him or not so we just stood in the rain staring at him.  Somehow we convinced ourselves it wasn´t him and even when he started honking at us, we continued to walk away.  At that point, we were pretty much soaking wet and Jorge had to get out of the van to wave us down.  We laughed really hard about it and I can only imagine how ridiculous we looked standing in the rain discussing and debating whether that was the right van or not. 

Tomorrow will be spent at the beach!  Can´t wait!! It´s hard to believe that we´ll be home on Monday.  Part of me feels like we just left and part of me feels like we have been gone forever.  Either way, it will be sad to leave but I am looking forward to being home and catching up on some rest. 

Well, that´s all I have for now.  Sorry it´s short but I am ready to fall asleep!
