New Mexico is still going well. We had a day off in Albuquerque yesterday which was nice to sleep in a couple extra hours. Most of us were glad to have the day off as well because we needed to do some laundry! We also went to the zoo after lunch. For dinner we had a friendship visit and dinner at ARCA, an organization that serves people with disabilities. It was a lot of fun! There was a ton of food and we served snow cones and had pinatas. We also listened to some great singing by a couple of the participants.
A couple days ago when we arrived in Albuquerque I had quite an eye opener. We had a friendship visit at Casa Angelica. This was the first organization that we have visited where the participants were completely disabled and many of them needed someone to be there arms and legs. This trip keeps opening me up to new things and everyday is a completely new experience. I have grown so much as a person and I'm so thankful to be exposed to all the new things I am experiencing.
Tonight we are somewhere in the middle of no where New Mexico. We are in a town called Carrizozo. It is a really nice small town of 1,500. We had a really good arrival at New Horizon Developemental Center where we had lunch with all the residents of the center. Tomorrow we have a 90 mile ride to Roswell! I'm pretty excited about this one. Hopefully I don't get abducted. But that would be an interesting story to come back and tell I guess. haha.
