Not too much to report right now. I just had a very brief skype session with Will (audio only since the internet was so slow). Always good to hear a voice, though! All are doing well - so far no one has gotten sick! This was their second day going into the villages where the Antaimoro people live. Tomorrow will be another trip into the villages before they fly out on Friday! When I talked with Will, I could hear what sounded like steel drums in the background, and all I could imagine was him sitting on a beach (which he was), sipping a cold drink with a little umbrella in it! :) It was a short and choppy conversation, but Bella got to hear daddy's voice which was helpful. She misses her daddy so much and asks multiple time a day where he is and when he's getting back. She saw a car like his yesterday at Chick-fil-a and said, "Oh! Daddy is here!!" So sad and sweet all at once! Again, thanks for all your prayers.
When I talk with Will later today (we have another skype session planned at 2 pm our time), I will update again. The power had just gone off at the hotel and the battery on the phone he was talking on was about to die so we had to cut the conversation short. So...more to come!
Here is a picture of their hotel:
And here is another picture of the countryside...and a rice paddy (they eat LOTS of rice there!)
A few pictures from yesterday that I forgot to post...
This is a village chief/king's house -so cool! (and very humble compared to western standards!)
And finally, something we Floridians can relate to...a roadside citrus stand (tangerines!) Will said they were really good!!
