We took Abby on
her first camping trip last night. She
had a blast !!

Abby loved the trees !!! |

She slept great
& she really enjoyed the cool weather that we had when we woke up this
morning. |

We had no idea
we would be so popular when we camped.
We had people staring at us from every direction. They were not staring from afar either, they were right up at the door of our tent
watching every move we made. We found
out that when you camp here, you need to bring extras of everything to share
with your “new friends.” Fortunately,
we had enough extra tea to share with others.
Here’s a picture of some of our camping buddies. |

We had a few
really pretty views from right around our campsite. We woke up to this view: |

We hiked just
down the hill and this is what we saw: |

It’s so much
fun to drive down the road & see wild animals. We’ve seen monkeys, baboons, wild pigs,
porcupines, deer, and wild cats. If
you look real closely you can see the baboon we saw crossing the road the
other day. Look at the concrete blocks
on the right side of the road. |

We went to the
grocery store this week & we couldn’t believe what we found . . . . Dr. Pepper !! That may
not sound very exciting to you, but it made Andy’s year !!! One of the things we miss most here is
American comfort food. Periodically,
our parents will send us Dr. Pepper in the mail. Andy will save them for a VERY SPECIAL
occasion and then drink one. We
couldn’t have been happier to walk into our local grocery store & see the
“find of a lifetime.” |

We had a great
Easter. We started off the morning
reading the Easter Story !! After that, we let Abby look at her Easter
Basket. She really enjoyed the
cheerios inside her Easter Eggs !! |

After that, we
went to lunch at a friend’s house.
Abby loved playing with Samuel’s daughters !! All three girls are in Traditional Clothes
