The trip so far sounds very special and unique, and you all seem to be learning a lot and gaining a new understanding about the challenges these girls face. I can't wait to read more posts! Caroline Carolyn and Carrie, I don't know if you guys will end up reading this, but I miss you both so much! It sounds like you are having a very good time learning about and experiencing Rwandan culture. Be safe, and have an awesome time! I know my comment sounds a lot like Raylin's, but she kind of said everything I wanted to say. Have a great time, be safe, and I can't wait to see you both when you get back.

It seems like it has been an interesting and meaningful experience for you all, and I wish you the best for the remainder of the trip. Raylin Carolyn and Carrie, I have been waiting forever for you two to post on the blog! I was so excited to read your entries, and I hope you two are having fun and making memories. I can't believe you guys met the girls that we have been helping...that must have been amazing. Your life in Rwanda is so much more interesting than here in the US. Here it's just plain old summer...I am totally jealous right now!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! As usual both your writings are so wonderful and descriptive. I felt like I was right there with you guys as I read through the events of the day. I hope you guys enjoy the rest of your trip, be safe, and completely immerse yourselves in Rwandan culture!
