Sunday Evening

JC just called to say he is going to be very sad to see the homestay end. He is really enjoying the time he is spending with the family. Today they went to a carnival, ate junk food and snacks all day. Daniel the 12 year old boy of the family they are staying with brought a friend with them for the day. The friend is the host to an exchange student from the Netherlands. JC said the boy from the Netherlands spoke fluent english and was telling them all about his country and things they should try to do when they are there.

After the carnival they all went on a 6 mile bike ride. JC said he is exhausted. The "mom" did all of the rest of their laundry for the weekend so neither of the boys have any dirty clothes. He also said he did not take any pictures while on the homestay and when I asked why he said because "dad" did. Apparently the father took pictures of everything the boys did for the weekend and is giving them both a CD with the pictures on it.

He also said they went swimming at some point today and saw some of the delegation, everyone is having a great time.
