Our going away party

Last night after so much action at Lago Atitlan, we arrived at Spanish Academy Sevilla at 7:30 Judy in time for our going away party.   We has a BLAST.  The host familieS, teachers, and staff were there, to celebrate a job well done by both Spanish Acadmey Sevilla and BEST Academy High School.  Each student was presented a certification of completion for Spanish classes and volunteering.   We eat a great dinner of steak, Spanish style rice, refried beans, guacamole, and tortillas.  The meal was great.  Afterward we danced for over an hour.  

My phone was so full of videos from the lake that I wasn't able to record with my phone, I was able record withy camera, however.  Unfortunately this means I'm unable to upload the video to YouTube today, I have to wait until I can connect my counter to a laptop.  I have great footage of the boys dancing merengue with their host moms.  Dancing the nae-nae, receiving their certificates, and have a really great time.

After dancing the students and teachers  sent off a miniature hotair balloon into he beautiul moonlight night.  It was truly a magical night and we all felt it.  Once again I'm so proud of this group.

Currently they are in class, their last time with their teachers.  After class we will go to lunch, help with the alfombras preparation, play basketball and spend time with our new family, friends, & teachers.
