Wow, what an awesome day so far!!! You wouldn't beleive some of the things we did today. Let's just say that my favorite and most exciting part of the day was the elephant rides. Yeah that's right- elephant rides. I believe that i officially have street credit now. Many people push a Escalade, a Rover, or a Benz, but how many people can say that they've pushed an Elephant? It was great, i'll tell you those big donkey animals can move up a mountain. There were a couple times that i called out for Jesus thinking that we were going to fall off the cliff, but the elephant was a trooper. There was one time when my elephant stopped to let's just say take care of some business!! I'm glad that i was in the front of Sonja and Laurie while this was happening. They had a ringside seat-something that i'm not jealous about at all. We then went out to monkey training school. That was'nt for us to be trained, but for us to see some real live monkeys go nuts!!!!! Sonja, our daring children's director actually picked one up. I'm sorry, i did have to chicken out on this one, the monkeys were acting just a little bit crazy. I obsereved and took some pictures. We watched a show of the monkeys where they rode tricycles, played basketball, and i even had one untie my wrist which was wrapped with rope. My heart was beating 100 miles a minute but i got through this pretty good-good job rope untying monkey. We then went to a butterfly orchard where there were many butterflies flying around. They were cute. After that we capped the day off with shopping at the market and then we went to a 3 story starbucks!! Pastor Lane, eat your heart out buddy. We also ate some lunch at McDonalds. It was great- their chicken nuggets taste the same as ours, but their bbq sauce was kind of interesting.
Well we are now getting ready to eat dinner and then go to a prayer service. Some of you may be wondering what kind of missions trip is this? Well, this was our full free day- the rest of the week will be ministry, but i'll keep you updated on this also. Were just getting started.
Well stay tuned for some more pictures.
Peace and a bottle of hairgrease!!
