Hello.Everyone!!!
I.have.to.appolagize.to.anyone.who.has.been.emailing.me.(including.you.mom.and.dad).
because.its.pretty.time.consuming.to.write.everyone.these.emails.all.the.time...so.just.
check.in.with.my.blog.to.follow.along.and.i'll.email.you.when.i.can.:)
So.yesterday.and.today.we've.been.starting.our.schooling.part.of.the.trip...and.we've.started.
by.everyone.sharing.their.personal.story....and.i.mean.very.personal.story.and.then.everyone.
praying.for.them.afterwards...theres.been.some.pretty.heavy.stuff...but.everyones.being.freed.
from.these.unspoken.burdens.they've.been.carrying.with..them.for.so.long.
And.everyone.here.is.soooo.understanding.and.supportive...and.not.judgemental...it's.really.
amazing.:).
I.havn't.shared.mine.yet....and.i'm.nervous...but.i;m.sure.it.will.go.well.
Tommorow.we're.taking.a.trip.up.to.the.Gideons.which.is.apparently.this.beautiful.sort.of.
paradise.where.we.will.be.moving.to.in.about.a.week.or.so.we'll.finally.get.to.go.swimming.
and.do.some.hiking!.:D
I've.developed.this.very.strange.rash.on.my.arms.and.hands.and.some.parts.of.my.face...
i.think.it.may.be.heat.rash...but.im.not.sure...i'm.just.hoping.it.will.go.away.soon!
I.don't.think.I.talked.to.much.in.my.last.blog.but.the.picture.i've.chosen.for.this.entry.is.a.
picture.of.some.Maurie.people....New.Zealands.natives....and.they.do.this.really.cool.thing.
called.a.poforrie.or.something.like.that.where.they.welcome.people.on.their.land...but.they.
do.this.really.cool.thing.where.they.kind.of.jump.and.run.around.screaming.and.sticking.out.
their.tounges.reeaally.far.out....and.jabbing.their.staffs.around.and.making.this.funny.noises.
They.have.these.cool.tattoos.and.they.do.this.chant/dance.called.the.hakka.and.its.reeeaally.
cool.to.watch...they.stomp.and.hit.their.chest.and.yell.out.this.chant...sometimes.sticking.
their.tounges.out...it's.really.fascinating.to.watch!
I'm.about.to.walk.to.town.with.some.girl.friends.i've.made.:).The.shops.and.stuff.are.really.
cool.here...and.i.like.shopping!.:)
I.hope.everyone.is.doing.well!!!.I.miss.everyone.tons.and.I.would.reeeaallly.love.to.hear.
back.from.you!.:D
Take.care!
All.my.love,
Alyssa.:)
