Day 2- July 12, 2009 continued. Comments from Catherine :)

Its still day two here in Ensenada and we just finished having our delicious meal prepared by the Mexican dorm mothers here, and boy am I stuffed! If you were ever wondering why we have restaurants named La Siesta (in spanish that means nap) and were confused by the meaning, in mexico lunch is a pretty big deal, so big that you need a siesta when you are finished, which I understand now cause I am in a great need of one. At the moment, everyone is outside playing and socializing in the courtyard/play area, and soon we will get to go play in the dorms with the children here. Earlier today we took a tour of the home, seeing the dorms in which the kids here lived and their "Main Street" where their barber shop, doctors office, Patty & Ricardo's office and their huge pantry stocked with three months supply of food is located. They are well taken care of here and don't take anything for granted, which really makes me appreciate what we have back home. God really has blessed us, not only for the great opportunity to come down here and let us serve others, but also through everything we are given back home.

We're having a great time here and I know it will only get better!
Love, Catherine
