Our hour and a half canter ride up to the village of Turpin. The road is rocks and dust and we are mad dusty by the time we get there. "People that are black like me go up there and come back white [from the dust]."
This is a family we planted a coconut tree for. They have been married for 30 years and have seven children. (Two oldest girls are at the river and not pictured). They can only afford for Benito, the oldest, (far left, age 17) goes to school. He has seven more years of school because he started late.
This is me and my girl Maji. She really wanted to ride in the truck.
This is Henry and his new friend Felix. He's nineteen and in seventh grade. He loves to play soccer and was helping out at Vacation Bible School with us today.
The kids really liked our sunglasses B)
