Fruit Inspection

Okay, I finally finished uploading the photos from our trip. If you are interested, the entire set can be found here.

Some things I think are worth mentioning:

Check out this scenery. I was not expecting this kind of beauty down there. It felt like I was looking at a painting.

On the way to many of the churches we visited, we found families such as these. Sometimes we’d throw candy out the window to anxiously waiting children. Other times, like this one, we’d stop and drop off food bags and/or shoes. One small food bag would feed a family for 3 weeks. Another shocker? One egg, feeds 4.

This is where we stayed each night. It was very nice. All the rooms opened into an outdoor courtyard where we would stay up each evening playing cards, kicking a soccer ball around, or singing songs. The weather really cooled off when the sun went down, so this was a perfect way to end the day.

This is just 2 of the adorable faces I saw all last week. Aren’t they precious? The little girl in this picture would not stop talking to me. I made the mistake of saying just a handful of the Spanish words I knew when I first met her. After that I guess she thought I was fluent in her native tongue. Oops!

At several churches our group performed the “Everything” skit. If you’ve never seen it before, I recommend watching it. By the end of the week, Paige was banged up pretty good after being thrown around the stage. But it had such a huge impact on the people there, how could we not do it???

Everywhere we went, the kids loved to play with us. In some remote areas, like the one above, the boys had never held a bat before. The guys in our group enjoyed teaching them how to pitch and hit. We also handed out frisbees at this location and the kids didn’t know what they were. They started fanning themselves with them! LOL! So we held frisbee lessons there too!

I really don’t know where to stop showing pictures. There is a story behind each and every one so I’ll just finish up with this one. I don’t even know these 3 amigos. We didn’t even go into this church. I just like this picture. And it sort of sums up what going to Honduras was all about.
