Home again home again....

...jiggedy jog!!

We arrived in Trujillo today in time to visit with some friends and enjoy a FABULOUS lunch!!  

We crashed for a bit, but headed down to to a close by pulperia (convenience store run out of someone's home) for some basic supplies to get us through the night and morning and turned out they were having the Flower Festival at the school All the teachers and students were there.  It was so fun seeing the little girls all dressed up as flower queens and princesses and the tiny little flower girls!!  They had the entire soccer field decorated with palm fronds, etc....and all the kids were just so excited!!  So fun!!

We've had a good day!! Thank you for your prayers!!!

The group from Washington State has already begun their journey this way.  After a few hour drive to the airport, they will fly out around midnight tonight and not arrive here until tomorrow evening.   We are looking forward to seeing them.  Please be praying for their safe travels and no cancelled flights or too crazy of adventures!!

I am so glad you made it home safely. Are you at Villa Brinkley? My girls have decided to stay with family due to the unrest, even though it probably will not affect Trujillo very much. Take care of yourselves. Juan and I will pray for your success in your goals, and I will light one of those pesky old Catholic candles for you.

Hey Patty...THANK YOU!!

We are at our house at the Brinkley,tell your girls if they need anything to let us know!! Also tell them if they hear anything we need to be aware of to let us know. I will email you our phone # later. Thad is out and about and I don't have it memorized yet.

thank you for your prayers.

It sounds like the group from Washington is having a great time in Trujillo. I am Travis Mann's mom and am so thankful for this blog...the news on the political unrest in Honduras can be quite frightening. This blog helps to ease some of the stress because we know everyone is safe. Tell Travis we love & miss him. We are keeping everyone in our prayers :)
Thanks so much,
Andrea Mann
