Today we woke up early to go on a hike with the whole group. We decided to hike up to the old Shyira hospital that has now been turned into a health center. The hike was STEEP. We knew that we were going up a hill but we did not know that it was going to take an hour of us going straight up. After getting to the health center we toured it with the director. It was interesting to see how the old buildings were no longer in use. I can’t imagine carrying sick patients all the way up that path to get to the hospital. On our way down from the hike we ran into some children and I passed out a few stickers. They hiked down with us and I taught them words in English, I felt like I was back at my job in the kindergarten. After our hike we gave our final presentations which was fun! It was nice to finish those presentations. The best part of the day was we went to play soccer with the local children! I loved every second of it. This day helped me realize that we are the gift. We can not alway
Today was a national holiday so we had all day to work on our presentations and posters. Our partners from the University of Rwanda came to a cafe on top of the national library to help is finish our work! What would we do without them. We took a bus to the national library and that was an experience. We practiced our presentations for the medical staff tomorrow in front of Waleed and I think they went well. After our presentations we went and had dinner at the tea house because none of us wanted to have anything super heavy. We went and wandered the streets which was very fun and then came back to play cards!
