...What do we do?

a lot of people have asked what i actually DO here. so i figured i'd share some snippets of camp life.
so the first day grace an i were at camp we decided to take a shower. the bathrooms here are dirty there were spider webs all over, adn ants, (that dont bite) all over the floor, and it was pretty sandy. the sink and shower were sort of rust colored, and the mirror was blurry. so we decided we'd have to clean it before we'd actually get clean. we found some old brooms and swept the walls and the floors, then used clorox wipes to clean the towel racks and sink. we found some soap,(it was actually Tide) and used it to scrub the shower. i feel like snow white with seven dwarfs out here: )
the second night here i went to a camfire with some younger Portuguese scouts. they sang funny songs, and performed skits. they all stared at us with huge eyes, and tried to speak the little english they knew. one of the little boys said he was michael jackson and started dancing.
we went grocery shopping and learned a lot of Portuguese, adn how to say the names of foods. and practiced a lot of charades.
for dinner and supper we eat at a resturaunt down the street. the first two days we got a lot of stares and a few laughs at the way we eat. it had gotten better, until yesterday afternoon when they gave us some kind of seafood gumbo. it was really good, and we ate very civilized. but then we tried to eat the crab claws.. grace and i had eaten them before and knew we'd need somthing to crack them open, so we asked the waiter and he brought us a cutting board, some pliers, and a small mallot. its hard to explain what happened next ..well, the other guy with us took the mallot, i took the pliers, and was trying to break it, and he suddenly smashed the crab to peices, and it went all over the place. our table was splattered, and much of the floor. the waiters stared and the whole room was laughing. i think some of the Portuguese eat there just to see what the crazy Americans will do next.
we dont have much work to do here, except we take shifts working reception. there's not much to do, we normally just sit and wait. and check facebook. other than that we sit on the beach.
now you know what we do: )
