Day 1
Roosters do not always crow at dawn. If that is inherently not true, then our local rooster is from another time zone, lost four hours west of his natural home.
There were various reports of sleep last night ranging from "like a baby" to "not at all." Some people heard the first rooster crow at 3:30.
The meals have been excellent. Breakfast was a small buffet of bread, fruit, pancakes, and eggs cooked to order. Well, you order eggs, and they are cooked, but you get whatever style they bring you. The coffee drinkers love the local brew, I'll have to take their word for it.
We are sunscreened, bug sprayed, and waiting for our truck to pick us up.
I would like to thank the many members of our congregation for the candy, cards, thoughts, and prayers. You are definitely with us on this journey.
