We have had lots of activity over the last few days. Austin was on call four nights out of seven, including all weekend. But it wasn't too bad. Annie and I went to the market together on Saturday morning. It was really nice, and she was a real champ. Very patient and surprisingly self-controlled. There is a beautiful abundance of produce here. We've enjoyed pineapples, bananas, strawberries, tomatoes, onions, garlic, potatoes, sweet potatoes, carrots, limes, oranges, more carrots, etc. I've made guac a couple of times, and the second time was good, with a little extra salt, onions, and garlic.
We've gotten to spend some quality time with long-term missionaries lately. Had really nice dinners with the Maras on Sunday night and the Myhres on Monday. It's interesting to hear about their path here, the adjustments they've made, some of what they've learned. Annie and I have also gotten to spend time with a number of moms and preschoolers at the RVA playgroup on Tuesdays. It's fun to hear their teacher stories as well as the how-they-got-here.
Looking forward to posting some pictures once we get back to the land of flat-rate, fast internet. :)
