Trip Update - The Quotables

So, a trip is not a trip without the quotable moments. Unfortunately, there's no way to explain most of these, so it's mainly a laugh for the team. :o) Team, feel free to add all those I've forgotten to write down!

  1. Adding 'o' to the end of every word to make it Spanish (i.e. what's the Spanish word for hell? Hell-o!)
  2. 'Porque luis?'
  3. 'Chupa-chupa'!
  4. 'Spooning' with Mindy (it's just a joke, y'all! ;o)
  5. Jorge Luis: What's the question?
  6. Eric: Den Mother
  7. 'My camera batteries just died!'
  8. Freaky Boy
  9. Door slamming shut all the time!
  10. Abot having to stop to go to the bathroom the whole way home and wanting to use a water bottle!!!!!
  11. No mirror in the bathroom – and Jorge stealing mine!
  12. 'Nando, eres Nando'
  13. Suicidal
  14. Umbrella - ella - ella
  15. Naming people 'Johnny Depp', 'Ben Afleck' and 'Angelina Jolie'
  16. 'Did you know Helen Keller had a dog?'
  17. ‘Que? Que es esto?!?!'
  18. Vamos a la placa!!!!!!

Also, I must end with our verses for the week. Pino prepared these great devotionals for us that consisted of going through parts of the verses each day and seeking to apply the truths found in them. He asked us to memorize it and quote it to someone on Monday. Well, I forgot to quote it, so here it is (with a tad bit of help :o): Tito 2:11-14, "Porque la gracia de Dios se ha manifestado para salvacion a todos los hombres, enseñandonos que renunciando a la impiedad y a los deseos mundanos, vivamos en este siglo sobria, justa y piadosamente, aguardando la esperanza bienaventurada y la manifestacion de nuestro gran Dios y Salvador Jesucristo, quien se dio a si mismo por nosotros para redimirnos de toda iniquidad y purificar para si un pueblo propio, celoso de buenas obras."

These two dozen or so pictures are some that didn’t make it into earlier slide shows. The last bunch is a series called ‘Faces’. Jordan took them of all of us on the last day. :o) Enjoy!

P.S. Thank you all for checking out these updates and being patient with me as I try to get each one posted! I have so enjoyed reading your comments (and deleting those that mention places we do not mention :o). Thanks for rejoicing with me, praying for us and celebrating all that God is doing! I am so grateful for the opportunity…

Dios te bendiga!
