Hey Guys!
Well, today we had a "day off" which really meant we were hiking up a mountain. It was really fun! So not so much of a day off, as in no work, but a fun day for us to hike and spend time together. We left the house around 8 am and drove in the bus to the hike. After that we stopped at a waterfall near by and then began our hike to another waterfall. It was really steep and definitley induced some azthma scares. (sorta similar to the 93 stairs, for all you London go-ers) But we made it! After around 2 or 3 hours we got to this beautiful, refreshing waterfall. We all jumped in, hung out and ate our lunch. We had a great time! We hiked back down the mountain and got back around 3.
At 3 we went to a tourist shop and spent most of our money, and we stayed there for around an hour or so. It was fun to see all the different things there. After that, we went to the missionaries house for dinner and got to spend some time with them. We also got a devotional from them which was really great.
After that, we went to an indoor soccer complex and played a gringo game, which was our elcc team and the missionaries and interns here. We had a great time!
Today was really fun, and it was nice to have a sort of day off. We are learning a lot and loving it! It's been really neat to get to know the interns and missionaries here and to hear their story. They have been so kind and welcoming to us. We are very grateful.
