Florida - Day 1

I arrived safe and sound last night after a delayed departure in Des Moines. There's nothing like getting delayed in the Des Moines airport. Nothing to do and no free internet. But I had a good time people watching. And the two families who planted themselves by me at the gate both spoke different languages...and you know how that fascinates me! Well, if you didn't now you do!

Bob and Sue picked me up and we grabbed some dinner at a steak place before heading to their house. I so love spending time with them! This morning I got up and Sue handed me a cup of coffee and I went out on the back patio to join Bob with my bible. We began to talk about ministry and Brazil and Sue eventually joined us as we continued talking. And I realized that the more I talk with them about ministry the more excited I get about the day that we'll do it together, with the Latham's, in Brazil! They live in a house on a spring-fed pond and this morning we say Blue Jay's, ducks, turtles, a crane, several gecko's and a snake. Not my favorite thing but Sue likes them and that gave me courage to actually go see it.

Now we are preparing to head to the beach at New Symrna for the afternoon. The cooler is packed with all the fixings for hamburgers and I am suntan lotioned up! I will try to upload pics tonight and tell you all about our beach barbeque day. Did I mention yet that I love being a missionary?

Até logo...(see you soon...)
