hters (and daughters in-law), learning to make chorreadas (homemade fresh-ground fried corn tortillas), learning more about the people and families and issues of the island, going to the beach, biking around the island for the first time (in 37 minutes, which I was told must be a record! Jajaja!), having great times of fellowship and worship at church, both at the youth and the traditional services, etc, etc, etc. Also, there was a group of people there that brought 50 packages of food to give to the people since they have been in veda (prohibited to fish so the fish can reproduce) since June 1st. Fishing is the main source of livelihood for almost everyone on the island, so veda is a very difficult time. I loved how they handed out the food-praying with one family at a time and sharing with them before handing the food over. It was beautiful! Picture will appear on facebook very soon! Love,
Carrie
