Hola from Mexico

Hey everyone. This is Val saying Hola. The trip's been good so far, altho I've had a bug I'm just shaking now. It's definitely been different doing a trip with a group of teens. It's been really cool to see them interacting with each other and the local kids. And it's great to have kids that have been here before, they are leading the way. There's evening debriefings, we heard the other night that people in our income range make up less than 1% of the world! Really puts it in perspective for me and the kids, it gets brought up a lot when the locals make 150 pesos ($15) a day picking fruit all day. Clark did the talk tonight to get the kids to start thinking about choices they will make in the future. I hope this trip will infuence some of those choices.Hasta luega, Val.
