Well, less than one month to go. As Jennifer told me, what seems to us as slow time seems to them to be warp speed in the final stretch. I met a San Salvadorian teenager who got this longing look in his eyes when I told him about the group surfing on the coast. He said he dreams of surfing those waves. What a gift for the girls to understand Central America, our close neighbors who we, as parents, have not met this closely before. Our 18 year old son spent 10 days in Guatemala on a service trip and I worked in a medical clinic in Dominican Republic near Haiti. We lounged on Caribbean beaches long ago. Other than that, we are learning from our daughter and the group and look forward to their synthesis. Once back, we plan on giving our daughter plenty of space to process this great experience.
