(Photo by Joanne Buchanan) Guides spend two weeks in Mexico BY SYLVIA BRADY Sixteen girls and two leaders from Mapleway Area Girl Guides spent two very enjoyable weeks in '!Mexico this summer. One week was spent at the World .centre, "Our Cabana" in Cuernavaca and the other in Mexico City where we stayed in the Guide residence called ' `Ficalle". Our first few days in Mex- ico City, we enjoyed the Folkloric ballet, climbed a pyramid, visited the museum and saw the Aztec calendar, bargained in markets and even went to an amusement park i where en- trance in and rides are less than three cents each) ! Our second week was at Our Cabana and the pro- gram there is excellent, giv- ing the girls a chance to take part in service projects and to develop a greater avrfareness of the way of life in other countries of the world. One day in each ses- sion, approxiibately 100 children from less fortunate families are brought to Our Cabana by bus and each Guide or Scout unit there takes the responsibility of entertaining them. Mapieway was well prepared and spent a busy afternoon doing crafts, 'games and songs with 20 lit- tle girls aged nine to eleven. Our girls also contributed dolls and toys they had made to the Christmas project the Cabana arranges each year for about 2,500 children. We had a World Awareness breakfast where proportionate sized groups were given the food equivalent available in First, Second, and Third World countries. It was a real eye opener, especially for the ones in the Third World section who only received a handful of rice! In actual life, it would have been the ration for a full day but we only had to hang on until lunch time. There was also plenty of time for relaxing in the sun, swimming, drafts, games, sightseeing and shopping which added to the special fun of making a lot of new friends. We enjoyed a delightful Mexican fiesta with a Mariachi band and a big Pinata to break. The carnival night was a hit too. The girls played bingo, dart toss games, had their faces painted, pictures taken and fortunes told and all the pesos went to the- -World Friendship,fund. - International' night was a lot of fun with cameras flashing from every corner of the room as each unit made its presentation. The time flew by and it was over all too soon. We spent our last full day back in Mexico City getting all our souvenir lists completed and our last evening trying desperately to put everything into our suit- cases! Lots of new friends got up very early to wish us a, safe journey home — a special, final touch to our wonderful Mexican adventure.
