I'm (almost) done!

We had our Close of Service (COS) presentations yesterday afternoon and they went really well.  I was a little nervous about ours because I put it together, but I was happy with the way it turned out and everyone else told me that they loved it so I felt good about that :)  It was exciting to be together with everyone, share our successes, and look at pictures from everybody's individual experiences throughout service.

After our presentations, our staff talked about us and presented us with gifts (awesome PC mug, and personalized Nicaraguan passport sleeves).  It was very nice and we even had some dessert before heading off to the Country Director's house for dinner.

Treats!
We took a PC vehicle over to the PC Nicaragua Country Director's house for dinner which is always a good time :)





There were appetizers waiting for us which we scarfed down since we don't get cream cheese dip very often (ok, never).  It was delicious!  Then, we had a nice pasta dinner with salad & garlic bread.  Of course they brought the extra chocolate cake over to eat with vanilla ice cream.  Yum!

We were all pretty exhausted
 The night ended fairly early since we were all so tired from the very long day.  I was glad for that though since this whole week has been exhausting for me and a bit stressful preparing the presentation.  It was a nice night though, and we were all glad to be staying in the hotel with nice AC.
