Day 8 Pesega Samoa

Day 8 Samoa

            Today felt like the longest day of our lives even though we barely did anything! Coach went to figure out why our crate full of humanitarian supplies was taking forever to get here. He was gone all day and we all felt really bad for him. Some of us laid out to try to work on our tan (that was unsuccessful for me especially) and Daniel attempted to teach some of us how to play rugby. Let’s just say that we should probably stick to volleyball for the time being. Finally at around 1, we got to go back to the sliding rock because we were all dying from the heat and humidity. When we got back to the house, the crate was here! We were all ecstatic and started clapping! After that we got ready for our match that was scheduled for later that night. The gym had no walls and was partly outdoors so we were once again dying from the heat. It was a new experience for sure! The best part of the day was after the game when we were able to give some of our things to our opponents. We all left without jerseys, ankle braces, and shoes and it was so worth it. I met this amazing girl named Emma and she was so grateful that we were able to give our things to her. She is looking forward to when we get wifi so that we can add her on facebook. (if you’re reading this Emma, only 6 more days until we can be “friends”) It may not have been the most action packed day but it was definitely a rewarding one!
