Today as we were finishing up with the kids in Alborada I noticed a well dressed woman watching us. She came to me and asked if she could buy the kids some juice and biscuits. We already had some but the kids had an extra treat. As we thanked her, Carlos asked her if she was going to buy them chicken and rice. We were a bit embarrassed because it was a little rude but we laughed as it was so absurd. However, surprisingly her response was, ‘if your well behaved on Monday, I’ll buy you chicken and rice.’ We still don’t know who she is, we assume she has simply seen us working with them and this is her way of helping out.
I think a lot of people want to help but sometimes don't know how and when they see us working they are grateful. A few days ago I was given a bottle of water by a water seller. It wasn't much but it was what she could give.
