from Jordan

I'm not really the blogging type so I hope this goes well...

But the city is Beautiful and there is a lot of culture still here despite the devastation from Katrina. The city is strong and so are the people. Most are immersed in their heritage and proud of their history. The people are strong and very friendly. It was a very pleasant change of pace to be in a city where the people are friendly and greet you every morning just walking down the street.

The school is coming along very nicely and it looks great. The staff is very organized, professional, and diverse. They sincerely care for their students and are here to be role models, for the children they're working with; it's inspiring for new teachers. I'm confident the school will continue to grow in it's success and will continue serving the students greatly. I hope to return and help out with future upcoming schools.

Overall the trip was great. The work was fulfilling, the food tasty, and the night life...amusing. Haha I'm sure all who come will have an awesome 6 day experience.

Ain't no thang but a chicken wang.
Love, peace, n' chicken grease.
