So Tuesday evening at 9 Meg, Fred, Kevin and I went to Lima to send Meg off, receive Heather and Michael, along with the Canadian team and band from Lima. It was a surprise that I was going, to surprise Heather, that is why I did not write about it. But now that it is passed, I can tell you what happened.
Meg and I slept the entire time except when we were woken up at like 3 in the morning because we were so ridiculously hot! The air condition had stopped working and the windows were wet and fogged up because it was so hot and muggy in the bus. So we had to open the windows because it stopped working.
We arrived in Lima early, some time around 7 and took a long cab ride to the Oscar Hotel.
We went to find breakfast.
Afterwards we walked in the mall for like 20 minutes.
And then Meg and I went back to the hotel and took naps and watched tv shows in english.
That was my first time in 2 months to watch tv. It was nice. We went to Papa John's for a late lunch.
And it was marvelous, simply marvelous. I ate my entire pizza and two breadsticks and saved the other 4 for later.
And then we went back and watched more tv. ha ha. It was very relaxing.
We took showers at the hotel and OH MY GOSH, I had my first hot shower in 2 months and it was GLORIOUS!
Thank God for the small things in life.
I did not want to ever get out of the shower. ha ha ha!
And then we went to the airport at 10:30. We dropped Meg off at 10:30 and then waited for Heather to arrive sometime after 11:30. And then she got here around 12:30 in the morning. And then we sat in the airport until Michael arrived at 5:30 in the morning and then the Canada team arrived at 8 in the morning. Yes, we were in the airport this entire time.
We got onto our rented bus around 9 and it felt like the longest bus ride ever. I could not sleep hardly at all.
We listened to music mostly. It was so amazing to have Heather by my side.
When we arrived around 7:30 last night, they had dinner ready for everyone and the kids were all dressed nice and it was a good welcome.
Today we went back to school and it was hectic. But we got out at 10:30 so Heather and I went into town, I showed her the beach and it was a good walk. This afternoon I will be going back to work with the kids until the 15th when we have our new house moms and I will be able to be more involved with the Canada team, which I am looking forward too.
They had a time of worship last night that I joined in and it was amazing, to worship in English, I Really appreciated it.
I look forward to more of that.
