On Saturday, March 27, twelve Jacksonville area residents representing Habitat for Humanity of Jacksonville (HabiJax) travelled to Tucurrique, Cartago, Costa Rica to work with Habitat para la Humanidad Costa Rica. We worked to build a house for a family with three children. Here is an account of our time in Costa Rica and some pictures of our experiences.

Day Six Photos

We lost internet connection last night so I wasn't able to post pix of our last day of work.  Here they are.
Jorge (Grande) - a Habitat homeowner and member of the Habitat Costa Rica Board of Directors - and very funny.
Jorge (Pequeno), our builder, and the future homeowner.
Jorge Grande with two 50 kilo bags of cement on his back. I had a hard time with one!
Finally, the last concrete slab is in place!
The whole gang.
