Day 12 - Sunday

Following the first night of luxury in double beds listening to the sound of the sea and animals as we drifted off to sleep we were also given a lie-in which was gratefully received. The students rolled out of bed between 8am and 10am to tuck into pancakes and local honey which was delicious.

The plan for the day was a gentle stroll to the local lighthouse along the beach and then back via the village to have a look at what work required doing. This was all going very well until halfway round the walk the heavens opened and it started to rain quite heavily. Walking past the school it became very obvious that it was in a dire state but a great project for us to undertake as we could make a real difference. A group if Americans had recently done some work at the school building latrines which looked excellent.

We finished walking back along the beach before changing out of the wet clothes. The rest of the day was spent on the beach, in the sea and around the central venue of the lodge playing cards, table tennis and reading. All in all a very relaxing day before the hard graft starts again at 6.30am!
