Day 9

Today I woke up (good start) and went to church. Then we eat Mexican food, which I guess is different than Puerto Rican food, I don't really see the difference. After lunch Betsy had an important meeting about two of the girls that will be dorming with us this year. During the meeting I took the gigantic 14 person van, loaded it with people and went to the beach. The water is still a little dirty from our last storm, we had fun though. Me and Leo spent a lot of our beach time trying to teach a couple of volunteers how to finger spell and sign a few basic signs. At the beach Leo told me that his Dad is going somewhere to work for a week and that he is going to be staying at the school. I told him that we wouldn't make him work, I lied. When we got back from the beach we spent some time with the two deaf girls that arrived today, the younger one is actually fairly well behaved and likes to sign. But the older on the other hand kicked me in the shin to get my attention, I think a tap on the arm is sufficient. Although the younger one did lick a marker... non-toxic I checked. Later I showed the girls the toad, they screamed and ran. Don't worry the toad was surprisingly understanding... I checked. Still no sign of the infamous hole people. But don't worry I'll catch them. Good Night Never Land.
