So we got a little vacay time this weekend and traveled to Rabbit Island. It took us about 5 hours to get there (there were some directional issues) and once we got to the shore we hopped on a boat. The boat ride was a little interesting, the waves were a bit choppy and so we got pre-island showers all the way there. It was nice and salty. Once we got to the Island we got to hike a little to the place we stayed at. It was real nice. The huts were really neat, each equipped with a hammock and a squatty potty.
We spent the next day and a half in or near the ocean. Abigail, John, and Jared went snorkeling around the coast and saw some pretty neat things. Me, Rebekah, and Macy rented some tubes and did some floating for a while. Most of us got a little toasty, it was cloudy most of the time so we stayed in the water a lot. We also searched for some pretty cool seashells and will be bringing some of those home. Around noon on Sunday there was a storm that rolled in that was pretty neat to watch. It also cooled down a ton once the rain started so it was a nice little break from all the heat.
We got back today around 11:00 (it only took us about 3 hours on the way back) and are headed up to teach class for the afternoon. I can't believe we are in the last week of teaching here. It went by so fast. We have all really enjoyed our time here and have all been looking forward to see what becomes of the seeds we have planted here.
Please pray for us to finish strong and to remain patient with our work here.
