Saturday

We said we would be done Friday, but we all really knew we'd be back Saturday.  Ali came back for some more gait training, and I laminated and fit Faustina, an older woman who has been wearing an exoskeletal leg that she's had for a long long time.  
We finished up around 1:00 and said our goodbyes.  
Then - to the market!  madness!  But a fun experience.  the best part was the concert we got by people there - drums and singing and everything.  Quite an experience. We hit the pool afterwards to get the grossness off.  At the market there are porta-potties with direct pipes out of the shelter and on to the ground.  and plenty of people who don't bother going into the porta-potty at all. 
We cleaned up nicely for a delicious dinner at a new locale - the La Palm!  Gorgeous, and a birthday cake too!  Daniel Kodi and his wife joined us to for a real send off.  A birthday celebration for me and a celebration of a week of hard labor with lots to show for it.
