Buenas días a todos,
I sit at the Hostal Cometa, all the best and only recommended Hostal in Quito, on the computer and am a bit uneasy. On one hand, the coffee I just got drunk in vast quantities, on the other hand, because today is the return flight to Switzerland, and this incredible, brilliant, unique, exciting and adventurous year so is ending.
of time in the jungle is not only time but also in my mind for a considerable distance away. I have fond memories of these wet months and my many scars remind me every day to the Time in the jungle.
We had a successful conclusion in late May: the weather left a last swim at the Arajuno, the children were once again from the very best, so that one of the farewell was really hard, and life in the teacher's house was very harmonious.
Together we cleaned the house and the school teacher and wrote a 70-page final report. The latter can thus inform our successors in advance and prepare optimally. The former, so that the cockroaches, tarantulas, termites, ant populations upon arrival of the new idealists (read: teacher) to be limited. In both buildings, it is but despite our efforts, and fly back Kreuch ...
In his teacher's house during the two summer months, workers will pull up the walls, so the new teachers (who wish to six - four adults and two children - live!) Have a bit more privacy. In the teacher's house is in the last week broke through a floor board (I'm sunk in the ground like Rumpelstiltskin), thus should also be repaired, which will of course also the Jungle Villa gather dust again. I also heard from Olivia that some volunteers have made comfortable after we left the house (the spin, the Volunteers) - our cleaning action was more a token exercise.
The Fiesta del fin del año quote I made our final report:
On Thursday, on 22/05/2008 (one day before school hours), we invited to a farewell party. 9.30 clock gave Heiko from Avena for all students, while the Padres de familia have the dinner ready made. At 10:00 clock we started with the students prepare the feast. The Luncheon of the school came to the usual time. At 14:00 should start the games for all ages. We have prepared a post with the chocolate-eating game, a blow-pipe a border post and ball tournament. Again, it was Jaime who urged us, with the games tend to start as the Padres then still want to play volleyball on the Isle of Anaconda. The games all made
As always, great fun. Not only the children but also adults screamed with delight. Sorry, Jaime broke the games were intended to last until 16.30 clock, already at 15.00 clock on the ground that the Padres were hungry now. The children were understandably very disappointed. The dinner but was still taken only at 17.00 clock. The professor and Maestra, Olivia and Douwe and two volunteer members of the Padres de la familia (Ruben and Victor) were served at a table on the landing.
was apparently the parents will play it too late to volleyball. All remained and "Baile popular" began. Dance were Vero and Diana, the cooks, Olga, the secretary, the volunteers and people from Liana Lodge invited. The volunteers we have informed in advance about the code of conduct for Kichwapartys. It was only afterwards we realized that we had forgotten Edison, the loyal assistant of Douwe, to play what we did very sorry. About
held at 20.00 clock acceptance speeches of different people (Jaime, Lucilla, Annelies, Ruben, Douwe) and the feast was merry. We have teachers for the Fiesta donated four crates of beer. A total of 13 cases of beer were drunk (and unfortunately also passed to the children). However, all parents disappeared suddenly at 1:00 clock when the beer was all. The next day we learned that the party on Isla Anaconda us without further gone up in the morning hours.
It was still a great farewell party. A Kichwaabschlussfest indicated. On the last day of school
only the older half of the students came to school. While all were tired, but helped tip-top with the school and the surrounding area cleaned to. The announcement did not appear Biligüe all morning.
Finally, we have divided the remaining chocolate from the previous day and distributed the certificates. Down by the jetty waved the Maestra and professor of the school canoe until it was no longer visible. It was a harmonious final day.
