Day 12 - Last day at the Ranch

Today was our last full day at the Ranch. Tomorrow we'll be off to the bus station at around 8AM to catch our 10:30 bus. We're heading to the Copan Ruins, which are Mayan (think Apocolypto). They are supposed to be awesome. We're also planning to do a rain forest zip line tour. Hopefully I can get some good pictures.
Since it's Monday, we worked on people who live near the ranch. Unfortunately, the renovations to the dental clinic were not finished over the weekend, so we had to improvise. Basically, all we could do is extract teeth. I ended up extracting 4 teeth and a root tip and learned a lot on the process. Dilcia really knows here stuff. She's very good at dealing with uncooperative kids and (out of necessity) she's great at extracting teeth and showed me quite a few tips/tricks to make it less traumatic for the patient.
After we finished with our last patient, she gave us yet another typical Honduran lunch. It was a roll with cheese and beans inside. The cheese is hard and salty, but tastes really good in combination with beans/rice/etc. She also gave each of us a regalo (small gift), a neat Honduras t-shirt. Finally, she walked over to the depository and helped us get a free NPH t-shirt. All in all it was a great day.
