Well December was a very busy month!
It began as all months do just running on from the last one but then we got really busy. We had orientation in the first week which involved moving newbies in and getting them settled at their institutions, explaining where to go and where to avoid etc. At the end of a very busy week we had the repair day at my institution! The day was long but we get a lot done from painting rooms to repairing clothes lines and laying carpet!. We began at 10 and finished at 8.

Just before Xmas we had the big B'DAY for Nile and Virginia which went off. We had a BBQ here at the Volunteer house and had a really nice afternoon chilling out.
After the first week it was all work work work and then the fam arrived on the 23rd. BUT exactly two weeks before that I had come into contact with one of my favourite children who had chickenpox. And so on Xmas day i woke up covered in spots. A very merry Xmas for me.
I spent Xmas eve with the children as Xmas eve not Xmas day is the big event here so we had a HUGE dinner and played games all night. Xmas day i spent with the Fam a little spotty but not too bad. We had a lovely lunch at the hotel and then i dragged the fam out to the volunteer house for a visit and by that night i was pretty much stuffed. Luckily i had the next two days to recover before flying to Lima to begin the tour.
