Outings

I’ve been quite the tourist in the past couple of days, which means that I have pictures! Hooray!

On Friday, I went to the ice skating rink with Maia (who teaches at the Academy) and the Academy students. The students had never been to an ice rink before, and Maia is from Canada, the land of hockey, so it had to be done.

We all left the rink very sore - the students from falling on the hard ice, Maia and I from holding them up and lugging them around.

On Saturday morning, I went to an international marketplace to grab food and explore with the staff. There were yummy treats from just about everywhere, and I sneaked in a few shots before the crowds came. Here are my favorites:

Frying Dutchman

 Bathrooms

 Pinstems

 Ceiling Umbrellas

As for my food, after an unfortunate discovery that I do NOT like buckwheat, I settled on a Greek lamb kabob. It was a shame, because the crepe looked very promising. Oh well.

That’s all for now. The team from Community Covenant Church comes tomorrow night! (So soon!?!)

Pray for:

-The team’s schedule got changed at the last minute, so pray that they adapt quickly to the new one.

-Now that I’m a bit more adjusted, pray that I slide into the rhythm of planning and coordinating their visit. I need to get a better feel for the business side of things, and this is my chance to do it!
