Peru Mission Trip: Day Three

I had the most amazing banana today!  Never again will I ever look at a banana the same way.  So delish!

Great time in worship with my brothers and sisters at the hotel!  We headed to Tito's for lunch and more fellowship.

A six hour bus ride became seven and a half.  Not good.  Aside from extreme motion sickness (even after the motion sickness patch, Dramamine, and Claritin), I also started having a panic attack.  I cannot describe how awful I felt and the mental torment of not being able to say, "Stop the bus so I can go home!"  Once again, my brothers and sisters surrounded me in love and prayed over me.  It was definitely a humbling moment.  Everything subsided shortly after they prayed and my dear friend gave me something to take the edge off. 


Sometimes the scenery is clearly poor and full of trash and devastation.  Or should I say  our definition of poor.  At other times it's more beautiful than Hawaii.  I know I said that already but it bares saying again.  So BEAUTIFUL!

We saw a llama walking through town.  We are unsure of the conversation but we watched the men look at the llama and look at the car... and look at the llama and look at the car.  Were they trying to fit the llama IN the car?  Or trading the llama FOR the car?  At any rate...


People seem so full of love for one another.  One thing is certain, if they don't know the Father yet, they understand true affection for each other.  Everyone is so friendly, so willing to help each other, and not in a fake kind of help either.  These people genuinely look out for each other.  Who's hearts are hard?
