Day one is over and it is actually day two here for us. It is 8:33 her and eveyone at home is asleep. I have gotten to speak to April, Laura, my mom, and my sister on Skype today so that was a pleasant surprise. Technology is amazing! They were able to see me online for free and we were thousands of miles away.
Frank and Bobby got here safe and sound sans their luggage. Hopefully that will be arriving shortly!
Yesterday we went to a children's hospital and put up beds for them and got to visit with several kids. It looks nothing like what we would consider a hospital and I don't really know what we would compare it to, but suffice it to say it wouldn't be anywhere that we would be feel good about taking our kids to. That being said the doctors take good care of the kids and really have a heart for them and their work. We also delivered diapers, toys, and a heater to go along with the beds and they were happy to receive them.
After that we went to Anatoliy's house and had a huge lunch. We had the best chicken noodle soup that any of us have ever had. We then had basically pork kabobs and rice. We also had other things but quite frankly I can't remember what they were called. It was awesome at any rate. We then came back to the school and hooked up with Frank and Bobby. Jet lag kicked in pretty hard on us after that big meal yesterday and we were all dragging. On a side note, my father was scarred for life from the driving over here even though I warned him beforehand.
We went to a restaurant last night called the Golden Lion and we had a good meal there but most of us just ate light since we had such a big lunch and then came home and crashed. We are now about to go into Chapel and so I shall end this post. We all miss our families but we are in good hands and excited to be here.
Until next time!
