It´s over?? :(

Well, today is our last day of work here in Guatemala. It´s hard to believe that two weeks has gone by so quickly. In honour of our last day, the sun is shining brightly and we had a lovely breakfast (banana bread and hot chocolate) overlooking the square. After breakfast we split into groups to finish our last tasks of the trip. For Roberto and I this included the challenge of vaccinating our beloved Nosy, a task no one was looking forward too, as she loves and trusts us so much. After unsuccessfully trying to distract her with chicken (Nosy did not survive this long on the streets by being stupid, that´s for sure) we put on a slip lead and threw my sweater over her and held her down for her vaccine and new collar. We were worried it would take a while for her to forgive us, but she came to see us about 15 minutes later as happy as always, so that´s a relief.

Today we had our last lunch in Todos Santos. The lady who makes our lunches and dinners here has been amazing. She always seems to outdo herself with every meal, and I may be the first team member to head back to Canada without losing weight on the trip!!! Tonight we will have dinner with the whole team, including Bonita and Andres our two interpreters. It´s hard to believe we will be saying good-bye to all this so soon. I know I will miss the amazing scenery, the friendly ppl and all the dogs who have befriended us in our time here. I will NOT miss the rooster who thinks the sun comes up at 3am, however :)

Thanks so much again to everyone who has helped make the project such a success again this year, and especially to all the team members who helped me so much and put up with my inexperience!
