Day #22 Chicken FEED!!!!!!



So agin training was long but I learned some valuable things about giving criticism to my students and teaches. We also had are second Kreowl lesson. I am having a hard time with the language but I think that I will be abel to pick some of it up, thank  goodness that Grenada's national language is english. After training was over I had my first interview, I was worried but it was nothing like I thought it was going to be. We just talked about how I was doing as a hole, host family, training, safety, and mentally. They also provided us at the beginning of the week with a hand out to fill out asking us questions based around what we had been learning. So that went well. I was exited when I got home because the boys where still hard at work with the chickens and I was asked if I wanted to some and watch slash help. I was so exited because a big truck was sitting outside and the boys had to unload all of the feed from it. It was crazy how fast they unloaded is and their was more than 400 bags of it. I ended up talking to the customs agent while they unloaded. In the Caribbean as I'm sure you all ready know their is a big problem with dug smuggling so they have to come out and inspect trucks that come from Jamaica and other such places. He was a very nice man, we talked about the PC and about things around town. I really wanted to help the boys unload but due to y back problems that I had in the past I don't want to add any extra stress to it. I did lift 3 bags just to try it and yes each bag was 55lb. once we had more than 500 bags in the shed we moved to the silo. The boys had to set all of the bags up, open them and dump them in. I was exited because they showed me how o open them, it was a bit tricker that I though it would be. They however where supper fast at it, so I just had to stay out of the way. I cleaned and helped one of the younger guys pick up trash. It was supper fun I dont know why I am drawn to the farm but I like it a lot. When that was said and done I when with my host father into the heart of the capital to drop some of the boys off. I had never been to that area before way up high on the mountain. We had a nice talk. When I came back I showered because I smelled funny and ate dinner. all and all it was a good day. I am truly amazed at how hard some people work in the world. I give you guys props for that.Im going to miss them all when I leave St. Lucia.
