Today we had our first tropical rain, which was surprisingly cold... and wet. It's probably the first time I've felt cold since being here. For some reason, it was still as unpleasant as if I hadn't been sweating for the last four days straight.
I felt like it was a little easier to relate to the kids today. Not as awkward as I felt yesterday at least. Once you start to realize that neither of you understand the language of the other, you begin to find other was to communicate instead. I hung out with one of the little girls from the widow's home who was really quiet. I couldn't remember her name, but it reminded me of Nemo, so that's what I called her. She wouldn't talk, but eventually, as she was swinging she started humming, and then laughing when she heard me humming along with her. Within the hour she was all smiles and giggles. It was too cute. I snapped this picture to capture the moment.
