Travel Intense

We are planners. So this is our first attempt at
deconstructing our organization-intense travel modus operandi. And where else on
earth would you find a destination more décontractée than the southern
Caribbean?
We'll start there. Could this be
our undoing?

LIMING

This is the first day in a week we actually had to meet a deadline. Yes. I hate to admit it, but we worked. Missionaries these days are totally wired (electronically) or at least so it seems after our visits to the Waddells in Costa Rica and now the Eszlingers. This enables complete connectivity. A blessing...and a curse.

This morning, Alexandra makes us a complete Farmer's Breakfast which wipes out our appetite for the rest of the day. Then, while Debra makes cinnamon rolls for tomorrow's breakfast (what else on the Spice Island, right?), I get the ad worked up and sent off to Eileen for a publication deadline.

After lounging by a pool reading for the rest of the afternoon, it was time for the meeting. Alexandra gave a talk and Ricky read the material for the Bible study. We had copied all the articles from the publications for the meeting and we covered the same information this week that we would have studied with our congregation at home, just like it is in every congregation in every corner of the world. A refreshing end in the quest for an unstructured but spiritual vacation.
