Today, despite being referred to by the Habitat jefes
(“bosses”) as a dura dia (a hard day; Nicaraguans often drop the “s” in
conversation for words like dias), actually was fun for some of us. The plan was morning
breakfast and be at the work site by 8AM. Minus scheduled breaks and a lunch we optimistically looked
forward to finishing the house by 4:30PM.
We're traveling to Nicaragua in November to BUILD HOMES and HOPE through Habitat for Humanity. Stay tuned to our blog to keep up with our progress and adventures!

Work Hard Play Hard
This blog comes to you from one of the two brother-sister alliances of the group: Cheyenne and William Farrell.
Since today was our third day on the build site, most of us knew what we were doing when we got there. Yes, we needed instructions from the masons to ensure everything was done accordingly, but we no longer need to be taught the small things, such as how to make rebar. This helped move everything along much quicker!
