I left Costa Rica at 7am on a Wednesday and got to London at 7am Thursday! Jason picked me up and that same day we went to a neighborhood where some baha'is have been giving children's clases to interview some of the junior youth. One of our proyects during the trip was to make a video that portrayed junior youth from their own point of view, a chance to share what's on their minds and give adults a glimps of their world. It was my first time holding a camera, and one of Jason's first times interviewing, so the road was kind of bumpy but we both learned a lot and were excited about the interviews to come.
(Sad to say lots of the pictures have been lost-sorry!)
June 4th - Prague
We realized once we got to Townshend ( a Baha'i inspired residencial school where Jason worked for a year) we probably just wouldn't want leave, so we decided to spend the first night in Praha. What can I say, it's beautiful...which is a good thing because we got really lost atleast 3 times. The highlight of that day was hearing Jason ask for directions. He was trying so hard to remember his Czech he ended up speaking to the poor man in Guaymi!! ( the indigenous language spoken where we grew up)
When we arrived at Townshend the next day and the kids saw Jason....they didn't stop screaming and hugging him all day! Everyone had really missed him and the feeling was mutual. He never left before the kids went to bed and wanted to be back as soon as possible to be with them again. He slipped right back into his old rutine, helping out at the school and in the dorms and I spent most of my time in the elementary school with some of the cutest and and smartest kids I've ever met. :)
