July 12th

After an exciting, event-filled, and sometimes stressful week, we were all very ready for a day of relaxation! Sunday was designated a free day and we all took advantage of this in our own way. Many people chose to sleep in- a luxury that we haven't had lately- while others preferred to get an early start on the day to spend as he or she pleased. Visitors were allowed today so lots of guests came out to DePauw, bringing treats and news from home.

The warm summer evening was ideal for our barbecue and outdoor activities. John manned the grill while we played volleyball and a few brave ones tried out the slip-n-slide. Bob and his family joined us at the cookout and we met his niece, Allison, who will be joining us on the trip to Ecuador.

The later hours of the evening found us, the procrastinators, scanning the internet to find an article about Ecuador, an assignment Pablo gave as homework. For many people, it was early to bed, as we have another very busy and exciting week ahead of us!
