The last two days of the March trip
I made good use of the last two days I was in Copan. Telma created a beautiful chocolate brownie cake for me to take to the World Vision office with our thanks for their help setting up and working at the eye clinics at Aqua Caliente.
The sign for the now finished El Malcote school was presented to Exely at the World Vision office. There was not enough time for me to go to the community on this trip so World Vision will take the sign to present to the Malcote area leaders and have it installed at the new classroom that A Better World supporters funded.
In turn, Exely (the director of the World Vision office in Copan) came to the hotel to give each of the Optometry Docs a small gift of appreciation for their coming to Copan and the community of Aqua Caliente. Telma had a cake for that occasion also and toasts were made to a productive and fun week in Copan.

Wow, it looks like all your hard work and determination was a great success. I wish I could have been there. Maybe in the future we can plan something together and I can do some medical screenings as well. I will be in Guatemala the last week in July with Paramedics for Children doing a training for the Guatemala Army in resuce. After that, I will be coming to Copan for a week or so. Maybe we can get it together to be there at the same time. BTW, you sign for El Macote turned out GREAT!
