My student companions:

(Susan, Ian, and Cassie)

(Cassie and Eric)
Cassie, Eric, and Ian were just delightful--as were all the students--however, these were among my greatest support system.
Unfortunately, because we were split into different rooms, I had little interaction with Peter, Norma, Greg, or Kathy, except when one of us sought out the others for consultation. Poor Peter and Norma were in the least ventilated room--a literal sweat box!

Interacting with the locals:

This little boy stole the show--he sang, he smiled, and he played. He captivated us all.

Cassie and the local kids. I swear the kids were as drawn to Cassie as she was to them.
