Today was a very exciting day!
After a week of lifting concrete, building walls, and many other tasks, we have our free day. We left the seminary early at 7AM for a two hour trip to our destination, Pozo Azul, in the Costa Rican rainforest. There were a variety of activities that we participated in that included zip-lining, white water rafting, horseback riding, and a nature walk. All of these were great ways for us to see different parts of the country we are serving. Whether it was frogs, bullet ants, or toucans, it was very enjoyable to see many of God’s creatures in their natural habitat. After our exciting activities, we had lunch overlooking the river where we could sit outside and watch the butterflies and hummingbirds.
Back at what has become home for us, we had our last supper prepared by our marvelous cook Carla with our host missionaries Will and Ella. For dessert Ella prepared espresso frosted chocolate brownies in celebration of Doug’s birthday today and Emily’s tomorrow. Then we shared one last time of talking about all that has been accomplished this week and what the plans and dreams for the future are. A great end to a remarkable week!
Please keep us in your prayers as we make our way home to Michigan (hope you’ve saved us some snow : )
Can't wait to get home and see all our friends and family!
