We have officially graduated from our DTS!! The graduation ceremony was very nice, especially when they got Josiah and Gideon to present us with our certificates (we don't have photo's yet, but will post some a bit later). After the service, we went to 'Baby Beef', this is a really nice barbeque 'eat as much as you like' restaurant. We got back at midnight, so the boys were quite whacked. I don't know if they will ever get used to the Brazilian stay up late culture.
Saying goodbye to others has been strange. We have met some fantastic people, and now most of them are returnng to their own countries.
We start our work at the lighthouse on Monday 9th June. It involves working with childrens groups and visiting families. So this next week we are having a rest. Hopefully we will be able to go somewhere else for a few days, but at the moment we haven't been able to arrange this. We also continue to make our place a little more cosy. It's strange for us to have some freetime and not know how to use it, but thats where the lovely hammock comes in, it's perfect for chilling!

Many, many congrats on your graduation. Learning has been a lot more than academic! Great to see Beckie in r e l a x mode for once!

Just off to monthly pm at DBC so will be great to have really up-to-date news of your placement at The Lighthouse. Love, R and M
