A Day in Our Life

So for this blog we have taken a photo of almost everything we have done today just to show you what our everyday life is like here on Corn Island - enjoy
8:00 Danielle makes toast for breakfast

8:02 getting our stove ready

8:10 Yummy coconut bread toast...add a little peanutbutter and its so yummy and healthy!


8:11 our new thing here is shakes. all kinds this morning it is a coffee chocolate soy shake...it does the body good and wakes us up - just add some nescafe....


8:13 .....and a little hersheys syrup to taste


8:16 and blend it all up.....

8:18 and look at the effect it has :BEFORE
8:17 AFTER: an amazing awakening!

8:18 - Yum, just can't get enough!

8:19 so i have 2 glasses which is very dangerous considering there is no public restrooms on the island...

8:40 after our service meeting we write a few invitations in Miskito

8:41 Danielle writing in her best penmanship

10:30ish Boli break - its like a homemade popsicle in a plastic bag - very refreshing!

10:30ish cold on a hot day

10:30ish - I must say i do love them

10:30ish Danielle like it so much she has a 2nd one

12:00 on our way home we hit a horriable Corn Island traffic jam

12:07 thank goodness it is cleared up pretty fast

12:15 to the store on our way home to buy ice so we can make more shakes tomorrow and the nice owner gave us yet another boli - probably because we looked to hot and sweaty. So that was 3 for Danielle in one morning - recored high

Well thats all for today folks - good night, LF

Danielle;
Someone gave this address for us to look at. We haven't seen you since 1995, so if you don't remember us, we understand. We are so proud of what you've accomplished. Keep up the good work
