Villages Trip 1- Part 1






Julley in July!

We are back from our first sojourn out to the remote villages and have lots to share with you. It was an interesting (and exhausting!) trip with amazing kids, incredible scenery and tonnes of learning.

Here are some pics and since there were so many good ones to share, we have to make a few separate posts.

Hope you are all having a great July so far,
Lex, Jen, Kate, Eileen and Aaron

p.s. We miss you Marcy!!!
