Trip to Ecuador part 3

Sukh sanding the wall
Our next project was painting some walls at one of Vista Para Todos's clinics. We arrived in our finest painting clothing, and proceeded to sand down the walls and paint them blue. We did a much better job this time around, and a few of us even climbed up on some scaffolding to paint the upper walls. The kind folks there served us a delicious vegetarian lunch, even though they were initially at a total loss as to what they could prepare for us.

Afterwards we went across the street to an orphanage and witnessed Una Grand Dia! in action once again. By this point a few of our team members were getting a bit tired of the Barney routine, but the kids still loved it. :) The orphanage was really nice, and had four houses to hold groups of kids. Once again I thought that the orphanages had a much more family feel.
