Today I woke up and had breakfast on the rooftop of the chaleanor and shadowed the Engineers while they put the footings in for their archway at Alejo Beni Park. It was a lot of work making the concrete to pour the footings.

Later in the day, we hosted a girls computer session and it went great! We had about 16 participants and they were all very excited. We had some issues with the WiFi hotspot, but Peacework got it settled right before our session started.

It is really rewarding enabling our students to do the basics of computer programming. Officer Ferguson was a great resource to round up participants from local schools.
