Yes, you read correctly. It took us 45 minutes to get to a town 9 miles off the main road. Think of the Jeep commercials with the rocky terrain and multiply that by 17 and that is what I've been through today. Twice. I might not ever get into another vehicle again. Okay, that's a little dramatic. I might not get into a vehicle for a week. Still over exaggerating.
Yesterday, I rode to San Pedro Sula to pick up a team from Texas; they're doing VBS in two different villages around Gracias. We went to the first village, Mataras, de La Campa, today. I will never again complain about country roads or pot holes in America.
Bible school went great. There were 76 kids total. I think they were only expecting 50, but more and more kept coming. The lesson was on creation. For obvious language issues that's all I understood. I gave plenty of smiles and thumbs ups though!
I almost forgot to mention I drank this ground up rice mixed with sugar drink. They have a name for it; it's pretty popular. It's odd, but not totally disgusting.
That's so awesome how many kids you had show up! He has a plan for sure, its neat how he out-does our expectations!
