     We arrived at Max and Daniella's the first day to screaming kids crowding the gated-in school with excitement like girls at a concert. They called out "Americanos!" while reaching their arms over the fence to hold our hands. The kids were ushered into their classrooms so we could make it through the gates, and then we joined them for activities such as "Simon dice" and "Head, Shoulders, Knees and Toes".

     The kids adore every second of attention and cling onto any limb they can find. 

     The language barrier didn't stop us from bonding quickly with the kids. 

     

They loved making faces for the cameras and taking photos of each other. 

Two of the girls from the school took us to see the ruins of Trujillo's vacation home and tour the village.
