Today was a much lighter day. We got to do some souvenir shopping and visit a coffee shop (similar to a Starbucks) early in the morning. We then headed back to the compound to prepare for the Hawaiian style party we were giving to honor and thank the staff of HEART who work so hard to run the program and the compound. They have been so gracious to us. They have never had this before so it makes it even more meaningful to acknowledge and appreciate them.
With Hawaiian music playing in the background, we started off with card games and visiting. UNO was the big hit with some serious competition. Jeannie gave an amazing talk about faith then we moved onto more serious games like musical chairs! Yes, grown men and women having a blast at musical chairs. They had never played this game before and they loved it! We all just laughed so hard. I think in the men's turn, they might have broken a chair in the last round. It was serious competition.
We spent the rest of the day shopping and preparing for the next events coming up.
Long but great day!
