We had planned to have a halfday to catch-up on computer work etc until the group from Pinnacle Chruch of Waynesville, NC arrived around 2, but they were delayed. They didnt actually make it to Leon until 9:30 tonight. Scarleth and Leo rode with Freddy to get them and Oscar did his finance day for NewSong.
Once we heard they would be late the Gables took a family beach day, and I did some computer work and cleaned my room. I had a lunch meeting with Preston and Sandra about the things
they need me to help about getting their house setup and kept clean from now til their return the first week of July. They have some beautiful furniture in the house now, and I can't wait to see what it will look like after another week of their hard work in early July.
In the afternoon, I went and visited my lady friends at the post office and shipped out some shirts. I am trying to get their internet back working, I found out last week they have been without it for 3 months. It is a DSL connection and I have everything working on their end, but Enitel needs to fix the line and will not answer phones or call us back. From the post office, I went to see my other favorite Leon women at Comedor Viky.
I eat there almost everyday either for lunch or dinner. They have great
unbelievably cheap Nica food and cold fresh fruit drinks and the sweetest wait staff ever. The owner is Viky, probably about 50 and her daugthters and nieces are the waitstaff. What I love there as much as anything are her granddaughters. They have morning class so when I go in for lunch they are always stopping by for lunch and waiting until their mom gets off work. Evenling is 12 and my favorite little girl, not in the villages, is 4 year old Alhejandra. While I had some orange juice and pineapple juice, I talked with the girls and their mother. They told me their favorite colors and what they enjoy at school and in their free time.
I found out where they live and rode my bike there later in the afternoon. I took Evenling a pink jump rope because she told me it was her favorite color and sport. I had a clapper for Alhejandra and a hair kit for them to share. Viky showed me her entire house and I found out they have a DVD player. Tomorrow night Wednesday evening I will go there and watch Finding Nemo with them in Spanish.
The rest of the evening I got to do more computer work and chat with some friends, a few that I haven't had any conatct with in 6 weeks, so that was a blessing. Jennifer and the men from Pinnacle got to La Pasada del Doctor around 9:30 so we breifly met the team and let them get to sleep, they have been up for about 19 hours today!
Hope all is well, sorry I havent been able to update in past few days with country visiting and other timetaking events. We will be in Candelaria from about 9-6 tomorrow to make up for some days missed and to let the team see the schools.
