Today was a slow day for work. We dug a trench to lay a new pipe which will help with drainage. We then took a tour of a local citrus processing plant.
Roderick, who lives at Hosanna House and helps with maintenance, works at the cirtrus plant and invited us to take a tour of the place that he worked. For some of us, this was our fourth trip down and have known Roderick for long enough that we have developed a relationship. I think he took great pride in us being able to see where he worked.

Though we could not take pictures to share, I can tell you it was facinating to see the process.
After getting back from the processing plant we ate lunch from Daisy's, located down over the hill. If you ever get a chance to come to Belize, there is a small store over the hill from the mission. The lady makes Belizean food that, if you like Mexican type food, is a real treat to eat. Everytime I come down, I like to go down and enjoy the local food.
During the afternoon five of us guys went to the local school and repaired some children's desks and the see-saw.
Tonight is family night! We are to have a cook out and are going to roast marshmallows and singing around the camp fire.
