This, the last work day, started with entertainment by the hotel cat at the expense of a local caterpillar.
The ladies planted in the garden at the church building today. Julianna took this picture of the soil I assume they had recently completed. I'm surprised you can't see the seeds sprouting already in this fertile land.
After lunch, Julianna decided to stay at the cement job and we put her right to work!
Yes, if Julianna is working in a picture, that means her Daddy is not working because he is behind the camera. ( No offense to the professional photographers out there...)
One of the family members at this house was Zerling, a new friend of Julianna's from VBS. Here they are enjoying the crayons and coloring book from the care package she received at VBS. Each child at VBS got a T-shirt and a package with school supplies and coloring books, etc. We also passed out a care package to the church members that included food and cooking oils, and medical supplies, etc.
Zerling taught Julianna how a household structure can double as a jungle gym. This combines strength, stamina, creativity, risk, and shade. Not a bad idea.
This is the victory lap, the last cement slab of the trip. I'm sure the backs are quite tired at this point.
After cleaning up, while waiting for dinner, Julianna and I hung out on the hotel grounds.
She said this flower looked like a popcorn ball.
If you are ever in Diriamba, Nicaragua, I can recommend this hotel.
The hotel also has a bird exhibit just out the back door.

WHAT FUN!!! I am so glad you gave Julianna the opportunity to experience all these things. She probably has a better world view than most adults.
Let her know there's a very excited 4 year old that can't wait to see her!
