We saw lots of chicken parts, tortillas, fruit, sweet little babies and every souvenir you could possible want! We even bought a pintata for Maddie's big birthday celebration!
Today was Maddie's 12th Birthday! We slept in a little again, then took a 'chicken bus' (a vibrantly painted american school bus that is used as public transportation here) to church at the school. I didn't catch a lot of what was being taught but I did catch that we are to be content in all circumstances... whether we are hungry or not, have money or don't, have a spouse or not... to always be thankful to God.
After church we had lunch and met up with a friend of Kel and Maddie's from Iowa who is here traveling. After some down time at the house that I spent mostly reading on the roof :) we went to the most beautiful restaurant I have ever seen to celebrate Maddie's Birthday! It is a 16th century monastery turned into a hotel and restaurant.
Now we wait for Drew, Heidi and Ellie to arrive as we get ready for our first day of VBS at the school tomorrow. ( Kairos Christian Schoool )
Before we head to the school for VBS we are going to Casa Jackson to snuggle and feed some sweet babies.
It takes a lot of time to post pictures individually so we are going to work on making an album with all of our pictures and I will post the link here soon!
Sending love...
