With dozens of little kids gathering around us wearing faces of joy, I finally realized the importance of our visit. The work our group completed in five days would have taken multiple weeks for the staff at the Cloud Forest School. Many of the students could not understand why my fellow classmates and I took our time to come down and help out, and it is simply because we know that they are in more need than we are. I believe that I speak for the entire group when I say that I wish we could stay longer and work more. Many friendships were made and a lot was accomplished, so even with this trip coming to an end, it has already been very successful.
