Hiking Adventures!!!

An article by admin    No Comments

Well, Lorraine and I are on Spring Break, and let me tell you it feels great.  We have been here about 5 weeks now, which is very crazy for us to think about.  Unfortunately, I started off really good at keeping up with the blog and then life happened (or at least that is my excuse), but during this break I will be able to catch everybody up; and hopefully we will have a guess appearance or two from my lovely wife.  I know she wants to!

Now, these pictures below are from a hiking trip week took about two weeks ago.  Sorry, I haven’t gotten them up sooner, but we had a great trip out of the city and up into the mountains.  Our new friends, Allison and Lenny (in the bottom picture), were nice enough to take us and show us the way.  We had a really good time; the weather was perfect, the view was beautiful, and the walk was good for our bodies.  I must mention, though, that getting out of the city sometimes is a difficult thing, because the roads are not paved and extremely rocky – not to mention the piles of trash scattered everywhere on the streets.  Also, as people of fair skin we tend to stick out, and whenever you walk or go anywhere the children like to yell at you, and in some cases follow you.  Our walk, though, took us out of the city and into the mountains and then back into a different part of the city.  Needless to say it was an all around adventure.

Allison and Lenny (pictured below), for those of you who do not know, were the ones that we communicated with and ultimately invited us to come here.  They have been dear friends ever since we have arrived, and we are truly thankful to God for placing them into our lives.

Well … keep checking for more because there are more coming up … Blessings!!!
