Day six, Today we head over to Fundacion Justo y Necesario from what I hear this place has everyone up in arms, because it’s not like the other places that we are working at. My roommates say that it’s a nice day school in a very nice area and the kids aren’t in any type of hardship. We get on the bus and our supervisor- John tell us a little bit about the place we are going. He tells us how this school is basically a school for kids whose parents are maids or butlers, about middle class, for high upper class people. The kids have to wear uniforms and they have air conditioned classrooms and buildings. My first impression of the place was that it was really nice (nicer than the hotel we are staying at and in a better area). I don’t really feel like they need us however it’s not a sweat shop if you don’t have to work then don’t I helped paint, because I figured this place was probably like some of the other places we worked at few years ago and look at it now. We painted a few classrooms then ate and watched a presentation about Ecuador, after that we went and played with the kids. I’ve never seen such a unanimously loved sport, until I realized how much everyone loves soccer here. The kids had some kind of recess and we ended up playing a huge game of soccer. I still can’t believe how every kid could play and was better than average. I actually used some of the trick that Richard at Ines Chamber showed me and scored about four goals. The kids were very happy to have us play with them and even though their school might not have needed our help at least we made an impression on the kids. We headed back to the hotel and got our Spanish lesson for the day and headed to the casinos, which are similar to the ones in the U.S., because they had a lot of security and treated people how come a lot very well.
