#2 Planning Continues

~ Planning Continues ~
and a Visit with LucĂ­a


Another quick visit with Miss Lucia before she flew out. It worked out great!

She was in Portland the night that we had a host family meeting where we were planning for field trips and other details of the Chileans' visit in March.


She joined us and got to see preparations from our point of view. Also, our Host Families got to meet her - the lady who started it all!



The planning went well, even though there are still some details to work out. We are really excited about the arrival of the Chilean students and getting to share Maine with a new group of them again!

There are also many new families involved on our end. A few of these girls are interested in GOING TO Chile this coming summer. This is a great introduction for them!
