Lunch Time! Un churrasquito!!!













Here are some pictures i have finally put up. it takes a while to load them on here so i cant put too many up at one time...but i will definitely put more up later.


Also i had my first day volunteering today!!! the organization i am with threw a giant birthday party...we went to a comedor (like a soup kitchen) in one of the poorest/most dangerous parts of Buenos Aires and had a birthday party for all the children that have birthdays in May! There were a ton of little kids running around everywhere...we were making them ballon animals and they were playing all out in the street. it was a lot of fun!!! we also gave small gifts to the children that had birthdays this month. we also took 3 tortas (cakes) and decorated the whole place! the neighborhood was definitely a poor one and you can tell that the families do not have much, but it was awesome to see these little kids running around having fun and for the ones that had moms they were there and i could tell that they were happy to see their little children running around!!! i had the best feeling in the world while i was there...just to see these little kids having so much fun with balloon animals ( i could only make swords) was amazing! there were also other volunteers there as well. Some from ireland, scotland, england, US, france...i will also be volunteering again tomorrow and friday, but both at different locations...
