Day7: Unfinished business

We started out today by eating so needless to say it was a pretty great day. After breakfast we went to the school we painted so that we could deliver them all of the school supplies we brought and the signs we made for them last night. The took them with open arms and they sang to us and we said our final goodbyes. I think I picked up a pen pal over here in Jamaica because the woman who owns the school has a daughter that is my age and is going for her degree in social work so it will be fun to have that connection back here. I'm even considering coming back next year so that I can see all of the wonderful people I met on this trip. After we were done at the school we went to the market. Now the market is a pretty hectic place just for the fact that everyone wants you to come into their shop so sometimes you have to be able to say no because you can only look at the sae things so many times. I did however get some very cool wood carvings and I think they will look awesome hanging at home as a reminder of all the things we did here in Jamaica. We also went to Times Square after the market which is basically a mall. One thing I found very interesting was that there we alot of Indians running the stores not Jamaicans. Tammy, Nicole, and I headed back to the hotel to meet up with the rest of the girls and somehow parasailing was brought up. Now remember I am terrified of heights. However, something told me that I had to go do this so I built up the courage and went. I wouldn't say I went peacefully and neither would Alyson because the whole time I was 600 ft. up in the air I was pretty much hyperventilating but towards the end I got more comfortable. I just had the image in my head that my rope was gunna snap and I was going to fall a very long way. But me and Alyson made it on the boat safely and then one of our crazy captains went up without a harness on! He used all of his upper body strength to keep him dangling on there for a couple minutes it was crazy. After parasailing we came back to the hotel and waited awhile for our supper and then ate our last meal which was kind of depressing. I am really going to miss that mac and cheese. But we leave tomorrow and have to be outta the hotel by three so me and two of the other girls are going to try to fit in horseback riding. I'll let you know tomorrow if that worked out. Well I have to pack so Goodnight!
