Hello there my friends I have been at liberty for two weeks now. It almost rained for a week. All the water trenches over flowed, in the city it flooded and there were crocodiles swimming around. Adam wanted to go to the city and see but it was to dangerous to go.
The kids at Liberty could not go outside when it rained because they might get sick. We didn't under stand why but we learned that the water trenches carry sewer water out to the ocean and when it rains and the trenches over flow you would be playing in the sewer water. Disgusting! Now we walk around the water.

Yesterday we went to old Belize and pickle park with the preschool. Old Belize is a museum we had a tour and learned lots like => The black orchid and the toucan are the national flower and bird. Did you know that the sugar cane has 5 uses they are white sugar, brown sugar, molasses, rum and electricity. After you crush the cane they boil the syrup until some of the liquid evaporates. I also learned about chiclet gum, it is from the sapodilla tree they would make v shape cuts into the bark. The sap would get boiled and poured into blocks that had to be exactly 25 pounds and sent to wriggles in the USA.
The trip to the museum was awesome!

Cash had a party for the kids there was lots of treats and dancing. The kids really like to dance and are really good at it. Drae and Jaheem tried teaching me to dance, they dance differently from how people at home do.
On the weekend we went to Belize City to watch Mr Wafee compete in body building. Mr Wafee is one of the caretakers at Liberty he is a very happy person. The people at Mr Belize and the music was loud it felt like it was going through my body.

Cash is leaving tomorrow, I am sad that she is leaving because she is nice and funny. I am also feeling a little homesick.
Thats all for tonight, check back next week to find out what we do during our day.
