Oil and Water Project

We were invited to visit this school here in Santa Ana, El Salvador. An American woman came to the area a while back and started APROSAR, in an effort to provide better health care in El Salvador. It has led to several projects including the barefoot angels. This school is sponsored by international volunteers to provide these kids with a better education. Our visit was very well recieved by the students and faculty. It was among our top 3 favorite school visits to date.

We started with a presentation to the younger kids, which ended to be more of a motivational speech then anything. We really try to get the kids interested with our humor before moving onto the more serious stuff.

With the older kids, we played some latin music and we all danced. We replaced the words of Demme mas Gasolina (give me more gasoline) to No Necicitamos Gasolina (We dont need gasoline).

We joined them for recess afterwards and had a blast. All the kids got on top of the rig and loved it.

Seth started teaching them all how to skateboard.

We had a heck of a time finding the place (the local police had to escort us there in our vehicle). But we are sure glad we made it. These are memories that will never go away!
