We just met with our attorney. She showed us where a Science and Technology center is for kids (Nino's) where it is interactive. It is really close to our hotel so we will be adding that to our list of things to do for sure. We all walked to Crepes and Wafles (So far this is my favorite restaurant). They of course have Crepes..anything you want in them--Chicken, steak , cheese, fruit. You name it they have it. They also speacilize in Ice Cream! We treated the kids to ice cream. Crepes and Wafles hires women that are underprivliged to work there. It is a really neat place and you can see the impact it is having on their lives.
The attorney said our case is in a smaller region so she thinks we will be ok once the judges come off of strike. She said there is only 1 judge in this area and she knows him well so cross our fingers she is right.
We don't have an "official" diagnosis till we get back to the states but we think the kids have something called Kwashiorkor. It is a form of malnourshiment due to lack of protein. B has many of the symptoms of it and L has some of it. So of course we are doing are best to help him out. John went and got gatorade (thanks Maria for the suggestion) to try to boost up his electrolites. While he was out he found me Mountain Dew! I am having withdrawls here as I have not had one in over a week!
Tomorrow we are going to check out the Botanical Gardens I think.
