DC Trip part 5

Last Day with the Kids -

On the last day there was water. Lots of clear, chlorinated water. And in the water was one pasty white pastor and a bunch of kids kicking and splashing and bobbing around in life jackets (along with a number of other adults). The kids love swimming! It was an indoor pool but that didn't seem to matter. No sand or beach, but that didn't seem to matter. The kids just loved to swim, and it was a lot of fun.

We also did crafts, storytelling, and music with the kids which went well.

We had our final meal, our closing session where we didn't get to officially say good-bye, and that was the end of our adventure in DC.

Today (Saturday) we are packing to get back on the train and go home. It has been a long week. I think it is to soon to try to sum up what the week was about or like. That and the fact that I am still a little groggy and foggy is keeping me from writing something brilliant and insightful about the week. For now, find comfort in the idea that it was a good week for our group and hopefully for the kids as well.
