Our village table at the festival. (left to right) My counterpart is in red, my school director, her daughter, our YCAP President, the Project Harmony director and a villager. On the table the woman in white is made of cheese and the swan on the right is a melon. Aren't the watermelons pretty? I confidently presented the Armenian's with apple cobbler and M&M cookies. They're located in the very front.
I shook the president's hand and told him I was thankful for the opportunity to serve in his country. I said that I work in the school with my counterpart and he looked at her (which made me a very popular volunteer). He asked how long I've been in Armenia and I told him 2 years...and then in my excitement I corrected myself and told him 4 months. He asked what kind of volunteer I am and I told him a healthcare. That was the extent of the conversation, but exciting nonetheless.

Look out Martha. That table is beautiful. I can't wait until it's your turn to have Thanksgiving Dinner so you can set out a spread like that for us. I especially like the cheese lady. What kind of cheese WAS she?
Love,
Mom
