In Olinala

Dear Ones,
We are now in Olinala. In the coming weeks and months we will elaborate and share more specifics. Below are just a few snapshots with words.

Arrived Sunday morning after a 9-hour bus ride. The bus was crowed, so we each held a child on our lap for most of the trip.
For now, we are living in the apartment upstairs from Derek and Ana and Lukas, the other MCC family here in Olinala.
Ana is an amazing cook.
The three boys have lots of opportunities to use their words and practice sharing.
(Isaiah 5years old, Lukas 3 years old, Micah 2 ½ years old.)
We are still in the process of investigating schools and deciding where to enroll our kids.
Still looking for a home. Two hopeful possibilities.
Liz has made friends with the local librarian. (YES, there is a Public Library here!)
People are very friendly here.
Other people walk and run for exercise – some in the morning, some in the evening.
The outdoor market has a wide variety of fruits and vegetables.
We have high-speed Internet access, hot showers, indoor toilet, and a washing machine.
