Happy Holidays!

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year from Aceh! I apologize for the lack of quality posts and pictures in the past few weeks - I've been extremely busy. I'm counting down to the day until I take off for Jakarta and Singapore.

Tomorrow morning is the awards ceremony for Art for Recovery (see earlier postings for more info). We have selected 12 winners. The top 3 will each receive a bicycle and the other 9 will receive a backpack full of school goodies. The logistics behind getting everyone to the Gurah village has been a nightmare. Tomorrow morning, I'll be coordinating 9 cars to bring 12 kids (from all different villages), 2 family members each, the Head of Community Develpment from ConocoPhillips, and 15 traditional women dancers from another village all to Gurah by 10am. Hope it'll all run smoothly and that I haven't forgotten to pick up anyone important. Everything should be over by noon and I'll get to go to the beach in the afternoon with Christen, my friend who's visiting.
