Yesterday was such a fun day that we didn't even write on our blog! We started out the day spending some time with God and reflecting on our time in Jamaica. Then we went out on a glass bottom boat and went snorkeling. Even though our tour guide Joe was quite odd and the snorkeling equipment tasted disgusting and didn't work very well, it was still really fun and an amazing experience to go snorkeling in the Caribbean. We went shopping (again) on the Hip Strip in the afternoon. For supper we went to Glistening Waters, which is a restaurant on a lagoon. The food was delicious, though the jerked chicken that Susan and Amy ate set their mouths on fire. Then we got to go on a boat into the lagoon, which is one of the three places in the world where you can experience the bioluminescent waters from a microorganism. We don't really know how to explain it besides saying that everything glows in the water. Including humans. So we went swimming and became glowing creatures. It was an incredible experience. This morning we went to The Meeting Place again for church with the people from Robin's Nest. It was another long service. Then we have just been enjoying spending time with the California girls since they leave tomorrow. We're planning on having a celebration tonight before bringing the other girls to the airport tomorrow.
Prayer Requests:
*Pray for two of the girls on the California team who have both been sick since last night.
*Pray for Robin's Nest as the couple in charge, Andy and Laura, leave on Tuesday after being there for a year. The special education teacher, Dana, is also leaving this week. They will be going through a lot of transition, and it will be hard on the children who we've grown close to you.
*Pray for safe travels for all of us we leave in the next couple of days.
