Fre(s)co! hasta hola ola! parte 2

adventuras de la gringa tonta (continued every day):
returning from a run this week, I went to the back patio to wash my clothes, I was proud of myself for remembering to stick a towel in the door and prop the lock so that it couldn't shut on me. However, I needed to do a second load, when, of course, I forgot any notion of the door, the towel, the lock, the wind... so, de repente, me quede encereda--the door slammed and I was locked in the patio. way to go.
nobody is home at this point, of course, and I never picked up the skill of picking locks, although at this point I figured, I'm a smart gal, let's try this bobby pin I just found--no go. I don't think that works on this kind of lock--who puts a lock on the laundry room anyway?
after pondering what God could use this time for and if I should just resign to skip ICADS, I notice the little window to my room above the main window--it as 3 little slates of glass which one can remove! I carefully slide them out, hoist myself up, hold on to the ceiling bars and slide myself through the hole into my room. success! oh man.
Late to ICADs, of course, but did my laundry and learned a little lesson that I thought I already new... : D


Went to "Alicia en el pais de maravillosos" maybe the strangest thing I've ever seen.
"I just love a good warm pig for my aching feet. Would you like one?" ...the futterwaken? I mean, really?
we were there with our backpacks, in the mall, oh boy, and anthony accidentally asked for an oatmeal cookie with frogs--avena con rana--instead of raisins--pasas-- :D

Rafting today in the best river in Costa Rica--soo beautiful all God's made! toucans, bright blue butterflies, waterfalls, green green green plants, rapids! I almost drowned a few times and think we were laughing too hard to be a great help, but it was amazing.

Woah. that's a lot. Thanks very very much for your time!

Gracias a Dios...Filipenses 1:9-11 9 Esto es lo que pido en oración: que el amor de ustedes abunde cada vez más en conocimiento y en buen juicio,10 para que disciernan lo que es mejor, y sean puros e irreprochables para el día de Cristo,11 llenos del fruto de justicia que se produce por medio de Jesucristo, para gloria y alabanza de Dios.

Vida Abundante.
