Germany 2015 - June 26

I was pretty tired for school after staying up so late...but at least I wasn't the only one! Ethan was talking to Cassandra and I and said about Jake and Kenny, "they stayed out so late at a club last night!" We said, "Um...yeah, so did we." He was pretty surprised!

That day we had chemistry, English, the break, German, French, and art class (yay!). Back at home, lunch was yummy" Spätzle with meat and sauce. Back in my room I opened my second Kinder Überraschung Ei (egg). I got a mini. Then I took a nap and we went out to buy birthday presents for Veronica and Kaylee (for the b-day party for the both of them later that night). Back home, her grandma came over and I talked with her a little, and she told me, "Du kannst gut Deutsch!" (you can speak German well).

We left for the birthday party, and one the way stopped so one of her friends could meet me. He was nice and talked to me a little bit. I also met another friend who was there too. Then, the party. I got so many bug bites, the first I got in Germany. We left around 11 pm.

Sorry it was so short...there was more in it, but not easily written down details! :)

California 2018: Open Heavens and San Francisco

Seven years of waiting. Seven years...and I finally was on my way to California. More specifically, I was finally going out to a Bethel conference in Redding, CA, by way of San Francisco. Along with my friend Miranda, we were ready for our short four-day adventure October 3-6. I couldn't believe that I could get to Guatemala faster then I could California. Seriously, what is up with that? (At least the way home was a 1/2 hour shorter than the US-Guate flight.) We arrived at San Francisco airport, got our rental car (a much fancier one than either of us owns ourselves), and set the GPS for La Quinta Inn and Suites, Redding, and started driving. The landscape along the highway fascinated me. Such dry, golden-brown hills with dark green trees that stood out like little black dots from a distance and looked out of place up close. When we got to a stretch of very flat land for a good hundred miles at least, varying between dusty dry grass and some sort of tree farms (were they al...

Guatemala 2018: Dirt Roads and 200 Cheeseburgers

It was a flawless blue-sky day as we drove out to Yalu once again, over two very bad dirt roads as we got closer to the village. Back at the school there for the third year, seeing the walls that we painted two different shades of blue two years ago, the youth did their skit once again. The kids really enjoyed doing Allelu Allelu with us, especially when they realized they should be trying to out-sing (yell!) the other half when it was their turn! Then, we played a crazy game of Sharks and Minnows with hundreds of excited children!! It was a crazy wave of little Guatemalans swarming us Americans. The kids watching the skit To shorten a long story, we had gotten a very late start in the morning and didn't have time to actually do physical labor for them, but we did see the location of where we at least left the supplies we had brought to build a chicken coop. It was a tiny little area where a family lives up along a hillside. It was the wife's idea to raise chic...
