well lets update you on friday. We returned to do outreach work at the house. We started painting today :) the paint made the rooms look so much brighter and gave it a warm feeling inside although with teh weather outside no warm feeling was needed!! Weather was roasting again today (hence title :p) Everyone got stuck in though inside and outside, someone came to lay the lino aswell which looked fab. We then postponed a tour of the Island had some sarnies for lunch and grabbed the beach stuff!! We got there and again proceeded to launch ourselves in the water, only staying long enough on beach to put suncream on! Had a fab time in the water and Tom who came as non swimmer is starting to swim like a fish its great to see and is growing in confidence in the water, he even went goggling (like snorkelling but without snorkel) to look at some fish!! We saw a multitude of fish again, purple and yellow ones, what we think is snapper, silver angel/butterfly fish, tiny electric blue ones, silvery ones (diff from angel fish). Saw loads of different coral and weed stuff too which was cool, there is a bright green 'rock' which is brain coral and has the convolutions like the surface of the brain (hence name). After couple of hours at beach we headed back to manse cleaned up and then headed to nearby church for a craft evening. The lads were given the choice of what they wanted to learn to make a bag or a doll :p they chose the bag suprisingly (hehe) so we seperated into 2 groups and learnt a local craft, after craft we had hamburgers/veggieburgers for tea and headed back to manse where some of the gang put pocahontos (cant spell) on whilst others of us headed home for a well needed rest.
Saturday came soon enough for all of us though, fill you in above
