First Visit to the Dump

This afternoon I had the privilege of meeting the other members of the volunteer group.  What a great group of people.  I am confident that we will all work well together and accomplish our goals this week.

At our welcome dinner this evening, we watched Recycled Life.  This Oscar-nominated documentary (2007) provides a powerful and unsparing look at the lives of the guajeros as those who work and live in the Guatemala City dump are called.

Tomorrow morning early we are off to Guatemala City for our first glimpse of the dump, and to tour the Safe Passage facilities.  I hope to blog tomorrow after this experience, and include some photos.

To the AEACMS students who are faithfully logging on to read my blog, and to the teachers who facilitate this process in class, THANK YOU FOR YOUR SUPPORT!  I will do my best to answer your questions and it is my hope that you learn something along the way.  Here's to a fantastic week of success at AEA...
