Picture of the Day 119: You better Belize it! Painting Day 2

So our second service day in Belize resulted in our 18 person group splitting up for the day. Jac-Attack took eight students to the mudhut to help on that project. I took the other 9 students back to Unitedville to (hopefully) finish up the painting project. All I can say is that this group was awesome and remarkably productive. So productive that we ran out of paint other supplies and had to spend about an hour picking up trash (which there was a lot of) around the school grounds while the local organizers went to get more supplies. But spirits were high and I tried to entertain the group with some ridiculous charades. Note to self: Don't ever try this again. ;)

 

 

We got really lucky (and some of us a little sunburned) when the glorious, warm Belizean sun came out to greet us during our down time.

By the end of the day we had painted two coats of paint (top and bottom of the wall) in five classrooms and picked up tons of trash around the school yard. We had a great day, full of inside jokes ("Guuurrrrl, you paint good...") and blue and green paint everywhere. Don't stop Belizen'!
