Sorry it has been awhile since I last posted anything. One computer for an entire hotel gets a little crazy.
The clinics are all done, and we are in the home stretch. Half of our group was supposed to leave for Cusco yesterday, but they had flight issues. The pilot told them it was too cloudy to land so they never took off. (not sure if I got the whole story) Anyway most of them are still with us in Pucallpa. Three from California did make it to Lima, Peru yesterday on a later flight and are still going to try and make it to Cusco. The rest are flying to Lima, Peru today and will just spend the night there and meet up with the rest of us on Wed. It is too bad that they will miss Cusco, but most are pretty worn out and ready to be home. I know I am.
Those of us who had planned on being here yesterday went to the church to help finish getting it ready for those 40/40 who will be living in Pucallpa. There was a construction crew at the church everyday while the rest of us were doing the clinics. Since we were finished with the clinics, we headed over to try and help finish it up. The construction crew had tiled the men's dorm floor and showers during the week. We grouted, hung ceiling, grouted, and grouted. It was hot in the morning, but rained most of the day. Praise Jesus. I could have used the guys from work to come help with the tile. Maybe next time.
We are heading out on a 1.5 hour boat trip this morning. We are stopping at a village that has a zoo. That could be interesting. Rumor is that we may get to hold a rather large snake. I will try and get back on tonight and let you all know how it went.
Those going to Lima, Peru fly out today at 2:00 and the rest of us leave for Lima, Peru at 2:00 on Wed. Our journey is coming to an end, but part of me believes that it is really only the beginning. be blessed.
