The hotel we found that would serve us dinner. It was around 3:30 pm and so lunch was over and we had a hard time finding a place to cook for all of us. We are finding that the people are up with the sun at 6am they eat at noon and they seem to come back out after the sun sets at 6pm (well for the weekend). Dinners are interesting. Plan 1-2 hours for a meal. They have a couple people cooking and they cook everything from scratch so it takes 30 min -1 hour for them to prepare and cook the food.

Our delicious meal that we waited an hour for, but we were hungry and it all tasted soooo good. We had chicken, rice and beans, and fried thick bananas - the best so far on the trip

Yes, it was all a blur getting to Leon, we had been traveling almost 24 hours and in need of much sleep. Below is Kris our amazing craft co-ordinator. She gathered all of the craft supplies and had everything cut and bagged and ready to go!!

On our walk around the neighborhood we walked by this church. It is supposedly the oldest church in central and south america. the square in front of the church was a gathering place on the weekend. People hanging around, music, food. There was an open air bus - a bus with the top cut off that drove around the neighborhood also. 
Dinner. From left to right: Dan, Omar, Mary, Amy, me, Morgan and Kris - awesome group Angie and her dad and sister were at the other end of the table
