We arrived in Ladyville with only a few coins in our pockets. Our food reserves were exhausted. We spent our last dimes on internet, hoping that some donations had arrived. It was a familiar story: we were expecting a serious sponsorship but the transfer was delayed by whatever reasons, and we hit the floor during these final days. We left Ladyville absolutely frustrated. No money, no food, no nothing. We were walking in silence, waiting for that miracle to happen.
A car stopped, the driver was a young and curious lady. Marga set us on our legs again, gave us some money, paid for some food and invited us to her house, in two days walking distance. The house is the central of a wildlife sanctuary. We slept in beds, we had delicious hot meals and showers, access to washing machines and the internet. And took advantage of the situation to learn more about the Monkey Bay Wildlife Sanctuary and to walk around in the nature.
In the meantime the resident students and teachers were interested in our cause as well, so we were able to get on track again a bit relieved. We also met Harangozó Tünde in Monkey Bay. Tünde lives in Belmopan and were a good and helpful company. What can we say... Luck? Chance? Destiny?... Thank you, Marga!
