Ibarra Foundation for special needs





14th August
So today we woke up extremely early...7:00 in the morning for breakfast at 7:15 we then took a brisk walk to the bus station to take the bus to the disabled childrens home in Iberra.we stayed at the foundation for the majority of the day doing different jobs in our previous groups from Tena.Some groups painted ,others gardening and the cleaning, and fixing gutters.After these jobs  walked to the nearest shopping mall,where we could choose what we wanted for lunch.I think we all had really nice meals that we very much enjoyed!!! We then went to the park where we played some games as a group however we did receive some laughs from the locals, and the napping Carlos! We then took the bus back to the hostel where we had free time until dinner at 7:00 where we went out for a nice Mexican. Then the leaders took us out for suprise milkshakes! Which were delicious if not too sweet
for some!

  7. You all sound like you are becoming proficient painters and decorators. Amy, I am preparing a list of jobs for you to do at home with your newly acquired skills! Fantastic hard work! Well done all. Sounds like you are eating well. Have you seen sloth yet? Enjoy your last few days and the adventures left. Safe journey home. xxx

  8. You all look like you are having a wonderful time. I'm glad you didn't let Lucy near the paint again, I'm guessing you have all worked out that if something is going to be dropped /knocked over /walked into etc. it'll be Lucy in the middle of it. Hope Lucy , Gemma, Caro and Jooles have found some veggie food that's as good as the rest of you are eating!

  9. The mural looks great! Well done everyone. Guinea pig - well that is certainly on the unusual food list.

    Have a great flight and remember at least your layover in Bogota is at the beginning of your journey this time, so at least you will be able to take it all in this time!

    Enjoy your last day and can't wait to see you tomorrow Niamh,
