Sitting at Burger King using some Wi Fi

So... here I am, on my time off.  It is really weird having time off because I sometimes forget that this is really a job.  This is the first time that I have had "time off" so, I don't really know what to do.  I decided to come to Burger King and get on the internet because it has been a while since I have been able to do that.

I am loving this new group.  It is so hard because the last group was so amazing, but this one is just splendid as well!  I am hoping that every group is just as awesome :D

The cool thing about this group is that they are all from the same church.  So, there are 29 people from the same church rather than 42 people from 2 churches.  It completely changes the dynamics and it is interesting.  I like it :)

This week I have been working at a place called Misión Betesda.  It has been awesome.  It is a rehab/jail alternative for adult males, the majority of who are in their late teens or early 20s.  I have been the main "translator" while I have been there.  That has been interesting.  It hasn't been going all that well :P but today, I explained how to play horse in Spanish and I think the guy understood haha.  That or he already knew how to play and was just humoring me while I was trying to explain it haha :D.

I haven't said anything quite as embarrassing as "quiere sentir" yet though so that is exciting!  The guys there are really great and I have enjoyed getting to know them the little bit that I have.  It is hard because of the language barrier, but they love playing basketball with the youth that come, so we have been able to get to know them through that.  They are SO GOOD!  Some of the things that they do are just incredible!  I wish that I was better at basketball, but it has been so much fun trying haha!  I am getting a little better, that or I am just playing and not caring quite as much haha :)

I am loving it here still and I can't wait to see what God has in store for the next 5 weeks!

This is just an example of the amazing skies that take place in Puerto Rico.

Breathtaking.  Especially at sunset.

Another example of the sky at sunset.

The clouds here are just ridiculously amazing.

This is our "fun picture" haha :)  I love my team (Me, Adrienne, Josh, Jenna)

We all went to a dam!

Becky (Area Director/Awesome Sauce), Julio/July (who is one of our friends from the community), Adrienne, Josh, Jenna, Me

I just had to add this one because I just now realized that Adrienne and I, and Josh and Jenna have the same exact faces... I'm not sure if this was planned...

The "good" team picture!
