just keep moving (and comments problem fixed : )

day 2. you don't realize how low key and quiet your normal routine is... until it's not 😆. whew! since leaving home, it has been a pace not for the weary lol! 

our team is a fun, loud, rambunctious crew ðŸĪŠ. you have to keep energy levels high to push through any jet lag and taking so much in. probably best to not stop for long. 

today we toured the soapstone factory. soapstone is a metamorphic rock that can be carved. the workers are apprenticed for years and create beautiful works of art. we shopped and they were thrilled to have 17 americans who were in awe of their work ❤️

then a wild and crazy bus ride. if you've been to foreign countries, you know the utter insanity of driving. this big bus has bottomed out and missed sideswipping vehicles honestly multiple times every trip. these roads ðŸ˜ģ

and the whole bus is singing praise music to loud music through it all and never misses a beat 😆

we made it to richard and jackie's home. they support 15 orphans from the community. we were welcomed in crazy fashion! the turkey cries, singing and dancing were wild!!!! the kids sang for us and recited Scripture. the excitement for having us there.... well, it is humbling to say the least. we are better than rockstars to them 😁









(farewell new friends)
