Citrus Hill Project - Fall Break day 9

Today we tried to get as many things done as possible before we pack up and leave tomorrow. We had a busy morning: Eduardo (electrician) and his crew came to work on the electricity that will pipe into the air conditioning units upstairs. Also working on getting power to the pump on the roof that will control the water in the cistern. Lots of good things happening on the electrical end. 
The boys took one last trip to the tienda down the road for Coca Cola (suddenly their beverage of choice) and bags of chips. 
Josh took down the last of the tile in the blue bathroom and I started working in the master bathroom where the boys have been hammering tiles off all week. We definitely won’t get that bathroom done befor we go but at least the blue room is done! That’s hard work removing that pesky tile. 
This afternoon the boys and I left josh to some work calls he had to join and drove down to Ceiba to see Carmen and swim for a couple of hours. She’s so sweet and made lunch for us and let us hang out and be there as long as we wanted! We had the pool to ourselves all afternoon and the boys could not get enough swimming. So we stayed and played and finally after 3 hours in the pool I decided that was probably long enough :) It was so fun to see Carmen and we’re so glad to have this sweet friend in our lives! 
Tonight we drove down the road to the food truck stop which is open Thursday- Sunday. We’ve never tried them so tonight we thought we’d give it a shot. The boys chose pizza, josh had a Venezuelan sandwich of sorts and I had chicken tacos. Overall everything was delicious and fun to try something new! 
It’s hard to believe that our time here is up and we’re leaving our PR home tomorrow. We’re excited to see our girls and get back to life, but we always leave a little piece behind when we go. We love every minute of the time we get to be here!
