Brad again. Doesn't look like Kristi will get to a computer this trip?
Matt is feeling much better now after having been sick a few days ago.
It seems that Americans have a difficult time cohabitating with animals in Africa. First, a run in with a bat by Matt. I won't say anything derogatory, let's just say his scream was of a pitch higher than his normal voice (that's what I've heard anyway). Apparently it attacked his face or hair or head or something? Matt, you've got something on your chin. Looks like some food. (just kidding Matt).
Sara and Heidi had a run in with some angry fire ants. When I've been to Honduras, the number one rule is "don't eat in your room". We'll let Heidi and Sara know that when they get back.
The gang spent this evening cooped up in their room. Apparently there was a bat flying around outside their room and they were all afraid to leave. This must have been the massive rabid vampire bat that attacked Matt?
Don't know if you all know, but when Kristi and Scott were in Tanzania in 2007, they had a baboon steal their tortillas at lunch time. This was after skipping breakfast. The meat that was going to go in the tortillas had pretty much spoiled, so that was their whole lunch. Needless to say they were very hungry come dinner time.
OK, sorry I'm picking on them. I have a phobia of small birds, and Kristi has some stories about that that will probably come out after this blog.
Kristi is off to Faraja tomorrow. She also mentioned going to see Amini later in the week. She said it was going to be an eight hour bus ride to see him, and I think she is going by herself?
We will continue to pray for everyone's safety and well being.
God Bless
