Photos are up

"Colola, The Place Where Dreams are Born"

All 200 or so photos have been posted on Flickr. My camera crapped out half way through the trip so luckily I have been able to steal photos from friends in order to document the rest of the experience. The second camp improved immensely as you will find in posts to come. I am little overwhelmed with the amount of great stories to share.

You can see the whole kit and kaboodle at www.flickr.com/brittsy
I have also found some crazy YouTube videos from past volunteers which are really funny. I will be posting them soon.

Health Update
I returned to Chicago last weekend. The next day, I spent 6 hours at Stroger Hospital only to be told that the meds from the travel Doc in Mexico were right on target. They did recommend I see a dermatologist just to be sure. I spent Monday morning at the derms office and waited another 5 hours. Luckily, I am a lot more patient since spending time in Mexico... plus, I don't really have any where else to be so the wait wasn't really that bad.... The Doc's say it's a staph infection and put me on antibiotics for the next month, skin gooped up with creams and ointments to be applied 4 times daily and I am feeling nice and ooey-gooey all over. Overall, I feel 100 times better and even went out in public yesterday. However, until the thing on my face is totally healed, I will be kicking it hermit-style.

Thank you for all the well wishes, I would give you a kiss, but wait, I might give you a flesh eating bacteria. I love you anyway.
