We left Minneapolis at 11:45 on Wednesday. I'm so confused on what day it is but it was just confirmed it is friday here. Taiwan is 12 hours ahead of Iowa. Although we were up about 30 hours we got a good night sleep at our host house. The neighborhood is really interesting. They are all five story condos with scooters parked outside. We were greeted with big smiles from our Taiwan team. It was a wonderful feeling to not feel like strangers in a different country.
Scott and I sleep in a room that has no air conditioning. It feels a bit like sleeping in a sauna with a fan blowing warm air around. When we woke up we cooled off in a cold shower. The first two floors don't have hot water but the cold water feels refreshing so I am not complaining.
After breakfast we headed out to the beach to swim and paraglide. First, we had to drive up a mountain that overlooked the ocean. Then, we had to run and jump off that mountain attached to an instructor and a parachute. All the way down I was praising the Lord for the experience and the scenery.
There are 96 children signed up for the VBS next week. What a huge blessing!
Pictures will be posted later!
