Today's activities: T and I and two other girls from our group, went back to the school for

special needs kids and helped out there. Basically what we do there is help watch the kids, we help with their physical therapy, feed them lunch, play with them, help them with their school work, etc. They are pretty cool kids. Really sweet and just so excited to make new friends. It was fun to go back. We will be going there every Monday and Tuesday morning. Tomorrow we will be making lesson plans to teach various hygiene things like brushing teeth and washing hands and such. The church in Chiclayo is building wells and this will be the first time these people will have running water and we are going there to teach them what to do with it. We may end up going there a couple times while we are here. Other than that, we are planning some other projects and talking with some other organizations to get some things started up. Oh we had a dance lesson from some boys from the YSA ward here tonight. We learned salsa the Peruvian way (it is a little different from the one I know) and bachata and some other dances that are native to Peru. That was pretty fun, I miss dancing! Oh one more thing, I bought a plane ticket from Lima to Cuzco the weekend before I come home. Two other girls and I want to go to Macchu Pichu before we leave Peru and we are making it happen. We will take a bus from Piura to Lima the night before. It is going to happen! And I am so excited that I 

get to go because I 
didn't think it was going to happen! 
Anyways, I love you guys! I miss you but I am having a really great time here.
