The next morning, I woke up at 4:30am to the the sound of locals working outside. The family greeted me by my bedroom door to notify me breakfast had been served. The breakfast consisted of toast, boiled eggs, and popcorn. After breakfast, I met back up with group and listened to everyone's diverse experiences. Thereafter, we started working on the maize mill project to finalize a few things. The CBO was assigned a few goals to help the process of writing a business plan. After the meeting, we loaded up in the van and as we drove away kids chased the van with cheers of joy. Our experience in the village made us all grateful for all those amenities we are accustomed to in America. Living in a hut with no electricity, bathroom, running water, air conditioning, or comfortable beds will make you appreciate everything you have in America. The ride back to World Camp was spent discussing our feelings and thought about the maize mill. Once we were back at World Camp, we were allowed some down time to sleep and rest. It was an awesome opportunity go shop or just daydream.
