Shout Outs!

Just a few quick shout outs about what makes Bolivia so great!


John and I have been blessed to live in community with some really great roommates. We are so thankful for their friendship and the true family they are to us here. For example...My birthday was a month ago. All i asked for was boxed yellow cake and store bought chocolate icing. Well they delivered even more. They made me a special meal. Knowing that i am from the beach (shout out Va Bch) they decided to make a Seafood Extravaganza in our lovely landlocked country! We had shrimp and scallops, with coconut rice and curry sauce. A-Mazing. They are good people.


Yummy....























View from laying in bed. One of my favorite things. I just can't believe that it is real.















Thank you Bolivia for taking soccer so serious. Nothing adds adventure to a sporting event like the fact that you could get trampled if the fans above you and below you began to really fight, and not just throw bottles at each other. Thank you for that added excitement.















And to "G" who found us on warmshowers.com and trusted us to keep her bike while she did some traveling. G- thank you for the real maple syrup from Canada and for all the fun stories. We wish you luck and many prayers as you bike to LaPaz.



John, G, Jenny, Bill (Shout out to Bill for teaching my husband how to ride a motorcycle...that is all he talks about. He wants to sell the car and get his own. Thanks a lot, Bill.)
